CARNARVON GORGE

 Well here we are at Carnarvon Gorge, we have heard so much about this place that we decicded that we couldnt be so close and not come and see it.

We had a great day and there is plenty to see but lots of walking, it ended up taking 6 hours to complete the 14k walk. The majority of the walking was pretty easy going but I have to admit that the pace did slow down on the way back, one way and one way out .

Lots of people are walking this gorge and most of them a lot older than both of us , we have had a great day and very glad that we came here.

Disappointed that there wasnt very much wildlife but the scenery made up for it, we crossed 11 water crossings but they have made it easy and the water is pretty low so even if you do slip and fall in all that would be hurt would be your pride, not even a wet trainer for us both.

We both slept very well that night and woke up a bit sore but had a great day and would recommend it to anyone that maybe passing through this area.

If you are not sure where this is ( on a map ) head west from Rockhampton till you get to Emerald then south for about 200k.
