Hello,
Was thinking of doing the Castle Head abseil trip and heading back up the Golden Stairs.
According to the NPWS website, the Golden Stairs are open - if accessed on foot from the Narrowneck lookout - but the 'Ruined Castle walking track' is still closed, and the Mt Solitary loop is closed owing to landslides near Ruined Castle.
Has anyone been down the Golden Stairs lately and can confirm how far along the track is open/closed? If it's just right near Ruined Castle we should be ok. If it's closed at the base of the Golden Stairs and genuinely dangerous beyond that we might have to rethink.
