Canoe Creek Track – Wollemi National Park

A relatively short but gruelling decent into the magnificent Canoe Creek and Colo River

It’s hard to believe sometimes that just 2 hours away from the hustle and bustle of the city lays utter tranquility and bliss, but alas there is! Canoe Creek Track is not long, but it is HARD (note, a 4wd is highly recommended to get here). Take a look at the elevation below. Basically, the track down goes bush bash, lots of overgrowth, bush bash a bit more, reach the decent, hammer your knees for an hour, and boom! The amazing campsite emerges after around 3 hours of hiking.

The campsite is sublime. Take a look at the photos. There just one other group there when we arrived, but there is enough space for all and we managed to have a beautiful night under the stars. The hike back up was, as expected, hard. But the burger we rewarded ourselves with made it all worth it. Highly recommended, be prepared for bush bashing and knee smashing!
