Getting started
From the far corner of the car park, with the road to the left, this walk heads away from the road and into the thick heath. The track is enclosed in sections by dense foliage as it slowly descends the hill. The track in some places is deeply cut by watercourses as it makes its way to the cul-de-sac with the open service trail.
From intersection, this walk heads along the management trail away from the cul-de-sac. The track continues for approximately 500m through a dense wall of heath vegetation to the intersection with another management trail on the right.
From the intersection, this walk heads down the grassy management trail towards the ocean. The vegetation either side of the track lowers in height as the track comes closer to the cliff edge. The track continues for approximately 1km before the management trail narrows into a bush track, approximately 30m before coming to the intersection.....

Toilet: There is one 4.5 km from the start.

Seat: There are 2 on route, on average they are 1.5 km apart with the largest gap of 4.4 km.
