Burning Palms - Royal National Park - 1 day bushwalk

The hike is approximately 10-12 km depending on our route and potential detour to Figure 8 Pool. The detour to Figure 8 Pool is highly dependant on safety considerations including the sea swell, tides etc. There is a 200m contour height variation between Burning Palms and Otford Lookout. The track is graded 4/6 and may be strenuous in places. Hikers with a reasonable level of fitness will have a more injoyable day.

Participants require a small backpack with: Lunch, raincoat, small first aid kit, hat, layered clothing, 2.5-3.5 lts water, insect repellant, compass, pencil & notebook.

The hike is planned to go ahead even if moderate rain is forecast. Participants are to plana dn prepare for expected weather conditions. I recommend that hikers have a change of clothes brought in vehicles picking up participants after the activity.

The hike will be cancelled if severe weather warning is announced for the activity area. http://www.bom.gov.au/nsw/warnings/
