Such a great walk, with some interesting reflection points. What a track to cover for those who arrived over a hundred years ago with all their luggage.Full review by LennyLH

I completed the track today with a mountain buggy and felt this needs clarification as I searched everything before doing it and all places said not suitable for buggy’s/prams. It is a GREAT track for buggy’s. The only tricky bit is a few rocky steps up from Taylor’s Mistake beach. However, if you have two people it’s a short lift of approx 10m - it if you’re like me, some kind young girls helped me out, so plenty of people around that you could ask. Or you can also take the track from the green paddock behind the carpark, over the fence stye and that track skips the rocky bit. From there the track is great, with only two minimal sets of steps I easily navigated on my own! Hope this clears it up for anyway trying to find the right answer on Buggy’s!

Hi. I'm not sure that we did the whole thing. It was a loop and took about an hour going at a leisurely pace and stopping along the way to look at the old WWII gun emplacements and observation bunkers. It's really interesting and you could find a good spot for a picnic.
