Getting started
If driving from Sydney take the Lapstone exit from the Great Western Hwy (it is not far past the end of the freeway). Park in the large dirt parking area near the water tanks on the right, soon after taking the exit. From the Reservoir car park, this walk heads around the gate (which limits access to the old rail train cutting). The walk follows this cutting, where tracks once stood. When the walk comes to a track which crosses the main track, where the sandstone walls are only about 1m high, then the walk steps up to the right and follows the track that continues in the same westerly direction but high on the cutting (the main cutting gets very wet and overgrown, and would be difficult to follow). Before long, the track comes to another intersection, with a view of the tunnel entrance. It is possible to walk over the top of the tunnel entrance and look down along the cutting, with care. There is no access to the tunnel. Once finished, return the same way.....
