With showers coming across every half hour decided to drive around to Beehive Point look at having a paddle up Yarrunga Creek. Beehive point is at the junction of Yarrunga Creek and the Kangaroo River and is a 5klm 4wd from the end of the Bendeela Rd at Jacks Corner.
Panorama looking across at the end of the Kangaroo River Trail and my morning walk.
To get the kayak to the water takes a 200 metre trip down the slope using the trolley andof course the same uphill at the end.
Once on the water it is all worth it as you round Beehive Point and head up the creek.
One of the original roads -The Timealong trail -used as a route from the southern Highlands into the Kangaroo Valley. Now flooded by Lake Yarrunga formed by Tallowa Dam.
Flooded forest
The creek narrows until blocked by the first rapids which made a nice place to sit and eat a late lunch.
A misty and at times quite wet paddle of 10.3klm.
