Hancock Gorge

Journey in

Again this gorge was on the southern side of the park and after we had hiked Weano Gorge we had lunch and then hiked to this gorge.

Swimming through one part Lloyd negated the narrow ledge

We had been told that you needed to swim through part of it to get to the end so we took along our reef shoes and was ready for some rather tough climbing as it was a class 5 hike"for very experienced hikers "

Kermits pool

It was so much fun as you has various parts which were different. The way down was very steep and then you hiked over high places and arrived in a place they called the amphitheatre for obvious reasons.

The spider walk

The next part was very tricky as the rocks were so slippery and it was narrow. It is called the spider walk as you have to walk along the sides of the walls like a spider with your hands and feet with water running through underneath you. At the end of this you are rewarded with reaching the Kermit Pool which is very cold and deep and of course a real green colour, wonderful with high rock sides.
