I have done this one. It’s good, one descent hill.
We did this trail last weekend. Just to point out that possibly part of the trail (close to Steavenson falls) may not be dog friendly as we saw a sign saying no dogs. Also we parked in a different place than these instructions which was more directly linked to this walk.
Completed this hike on the weekend. We parked at the Stevenson Falls car park and it cost us $3 for the full day. make sure to bring coins as the machine doesn’t take card. The hike itself was great. The track was very well set out and easy to navigate. It took us 4.5 hours to complete with a 20 minute stop at Keppell Lookout for lunch. Grade 3 seems accurate.
Completed this walk today – really good! Some spectacular waterfall views! You’ll definitely need the GPX file as there was very minimal signage! Also, one very decent hill! It was quite a challenge!
