Trail Fast Facts
Livingstone multi-use track is a 4.3km, grade 2 hike in Livingstone National Park, New South Wales. This hike typically takes 1.5 hours to complete.
Hike Overview
Livingstone multi-use track is a 4.3km loop track, perfect for enjoying some of the loveliest parts of Livingstone National Park. If you're hiking, mountain biking or horse riding, this track takes you through open woodlands full of tall cypress pines, scribbly gums and spectacular rusty spider flowers. In spring, areas are blanketed in gorgeous wildflowers, including yellow flowering kangaroo thorn and yellow clustered everlastings.
As the only multi-use track in the region, it's very popular. Members of the Wagga Wagga Wilderness Walkers and Wagga Wagga Mountain Bike Club frequently visit here, as do families and anyone wanting a dose of nature and fresh air.
Birdwatchers should be sure to bring their binoculars; scarlet robins, brown tree creepers, speckled warblers and turquoise parrots are best spotted early morning or late afternoon.
Track Grade
Grade 2 (Easy) -Â A Gentle Introduction to Inclines: Grade 2 on the AWTGS represents easy walking tracks that offer a slightly more challenging experience compared to Grade 1. Similar to Grade 1, no prior bushwalking experience is required. The track surface is typically hardened or compacted and may have gentle hill sections or occasional steps. The total distance of a Grade 2 walk is typically no greater than 10 kilometers. These walks are still suitable for families with a bit more experience or those seeking a gentle introduction to some inclines.
