Drapers Gorge

1.6 km return

30 min to 45 min

30 min to 45 min

Starting from Temple Gorge Campground, Kennedy Ranges National Park, this walk takes you to Drapers Gorge and back, following a stony watercourse. This walk is for adventurers who want to be awarded breathtaking views after a challenging climb. Do not let the first half of the walk trick you as it gets steeper and trickier after you hop on the stony creek bed. There are a series of pools that fill during the wet season, and a waterfall over the 30-metre rock face cascades after heavy rainfall. Please bring plenty of water as the area can get extremely hot. Hiking shoes are also recommended for the steeper sections of the walk. Let us begin by acknowledging the Traditional Custodians of the land on which we travel today, and pay our respects to their Elders past and present.

Escarpment Trail

1 h 15 min to 1 h 45 min

Starting from Temple Gorge Campground, Kennedy Ranges National Park, this walk takes you to the Escarpment Lookout and back. You can enjoy the open views from the escarpment and see how minute the car park and the campground actually are. The path follows a rocky creek bed in the first half, and interesting geological formations are around to observe, along with sandalwood (Santalum spicatum). The second half is steeper and requires cliff edges and loose rocks to navigate in between. You might want to take your hiking shoes and plenty of water with you. Keep in mind the walk can take a long time, and start the journey a little earlier as it can get extremely hard to navigate on the way back.
