Bangadilly National Park

Bangadilly National Park in the Canyonleigh area to the west of Sutton Forest in the Southern Highlands.


No marked walks in this National Park but used fire trails and then a rocky trail to get to the top of Mt Penang. Surprised an owl on the walk in and hundreds of spiders and their webs across the track to catch the thousands of butterflies out enjoying the morning

An easy walk of about 4 klm to some panoramic views over the Wingecarribe River valley. A gentle climb to the trig point with views over the cliffs on the south east side.

Interesting dead and fallen trees amongst the exposed rocks on the top.

Nellie's Glen, Budderoo National Park

Just around the corner from Carrington Falls, Nellie's Glen is on a side creek that runs into the Kangaroo River.


We have had enough rain this summer that the falls must be close to their best.





People have been picnicing here for well over a hundred years. Again only a short 500mtr walk from the car.

Carrington Falls


Short trip last week to the Southern Highlands south of Sydney.


Carrington Falls is in Budderoo National Park near Robertson.

The Kangaroo River flows off the escarpment here and down the gorge to the Kangaroo Valley.


Only a short walk from the carpark and a nice picnic area to the falls and the river.

Somersby Falls

A nice way to spend an hour or so one day last week,dodging the showers.
Time lapse with neutral density filter.


Midweek on a rainy day and I had the falls to myself.






Turned up the colour saturation on these two a little bit.



Up close to this part of the falls. Most of the others taken from here had water drplets on the lens show up in the photo. Must remember to clean filter before each shot.
