Hike Summary
This section of the Great North Walk starts from the Watagan Creek Road and winds north across the valley and up into the Watagan State Forest following the ridge lines around the Flatrock Lookout and down into the Congewai Valley before finishing at the track head at Congewai Valley Road. There are few (and unreliable) water sources in this section so carrying sufficient supplies is necessary.
