VICTORY TRACK TO SASSAFRAS GULLY (14KM) MEDIUM/HARD-GRADE 4

This pleasant walk takes in the sights of two fantastic Blue Mountains valleys. The walk uses the gullies to navigate past some wonderful rock features, dense bushland and waterfalls. From FAULCONBRIDGE Station we begin a steep and challenging (300M) descent down Victory Track along Sassafras and Glenbrook Creek discovering hidden waterfalls before visiting Perch Ponds where we have lunch. We then begin a (200M) gradual ascent up Magdala Gully exploring more waterfalls and pools, finishing the walk at SPRINGWOOD Station by 4:00pm.
