Access

The trail
This adventure starts and ends at Audley Village. There are a number of picnic tables and chairs if you need to sit and feed bub. The Audley Dance Hall cafe is also here if you need breakkie or lunch and is a great bush cafe worthy of it’s own write up. Just be mindful of the swooping kookaburras if you’re feeding bub at the cafe!
Once you’re ready, head south along the asphalt shared path, past Varney’s bridge and the Willow tree picnic area, until you get to the gate and sign at the start of the Lady Carrington Drive trail.
Once you pass the gate, the trail becomes rocky. If you’re not comfortable with the suspension on your pram, turn around here. Otherwise continue bumping along the trail for about 400m until you reach Gibraltar Rock. There are beautiful views to the Hawksbury River and across to Wattle Forrest Picnic Area.
There is a picnic table underneath the rock overhang at Gibraltar Rock if you want to stop for a break before returning the same way.
Note this trail can be busy with bike riders on the weekend.
