You’ve classified this walk as Grade 1 but than also suggest it is not suitable for prams or wheelchairs. That is exactly what a Class 1 walk is meant to indicate. May I respectfully suggest that you reclassify the walk strictly adhering to the AWTGS.

  Thanks for the info. I had classified this hike as per parks Victoria’s rating following the AWTGS. I have now updated as you suggested on the basis that the trail had undergone flood damage and is not suitable for prams.
