A tough climb to Careys Peak via the Corker Trail (Barrington Tops)

The hike to Careys Peak (1,544m asl) involves a hard slog up the Corker Trail, with almost all the altitude gain in the first few kilometres. The reward is sweeping views from the peak towards the coast.

Rocky Crossing, Barrington Tops

A surprisingly quiet and picturesque walk that follows the Williams River through rainforest up to Rocky Crossing, with several side trips to features along the river. The Rocky Crossing trail includes the Blue Gum Loop Trail (which can also be done separately as a shorter walk)
