Starting from Chalcot Road, Anstead, this walk takes you on a circuit in the eastern parts of Moggill Conservation Park via the Devils Break and Centre Road tracks. You’ll be walking along wide tracks that allow you to take in the scenery and the diverse flora. Several types of gum trees can be seen trackside, with eastern whipbirds and black-breasted button-quails on them if you’re lucky. You can come across bandicoots, koalas and lace monitors throughout the journey as well. This track may also be a great choice for trail running considering the gradual inclines/declines. Decent hiking shoes and poles may come in handy. 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.
Before you start any bushwalk ensure you;
• Tell someone you trust where you are going and what to do if you are overdue
• Have adequate equipment, supplies, skills & knowledge for the whole journey
• Consider the impact of weather forecasts, park/track closures & fire dangers
• Can respond to emergencies & call for help at any point
• Are healthy and fit enough for this journey
If not, change plans and stay safe. It is okay to delay and ask people for help.
