Hi all
Has anyone traveled through this park recently. I intend going in at Bulga and then following on to Scrape, Hayes Creek, King
Junction, Raspberry
Junction, Three Ways, Devils Elbow and finishing at Olinda. Can anyone advise of conditions, difficulty, and estimated time? I intend doing this on Friday.
Cheers
Jack

You might need to contact NPWS on this; as far as I know, they've gated it off and there has been no access through for a number of years. Fron the Olinda end, you can get to the top of Mt Coricudgy, but there is a
locked gate shortly after. On the
Putty end, NPWS went to great lengths a few years ago to block access. There is still some access through private property, but I don't believe that you'll get through on the other side. However, I havn't bothered looking around the area for a few years now, so hopefully, someone will tell me I'm wrong and you can go right through! Have you got the names above from the LPI topo maps?
regards
Andrew

Thanks Andrew
I was hoping that gates were someplace else and not in OUR NP. Oh
well, have to try somewhere else. I was heading from
taree accross to Cowra and then down to Melb. I found the names on my Raster Map.
Cheers

The road from Olinda over the top into to Widden Valley has two gates through private property and both are locked.
