Ettrema Gorge with traverse of Jones Creek
Thu 18th Dec 2025
Bookings available to active members only.
A totally off track walk from Touga Rd near Nerriga. Short bush hike to descend into the gorge at Murrays Pools for camp on night 1. Then we will progress north through the gorge to Jones Creek. Traverse the full length of Jones Ck and then exit onto the track. Camping along the way. Car shuffle required. Fit, experienced, off track walkers only. Scrambling ascents and descents, wading and/or wet feet. Waterproofing of pack recommended. Bush bashing. Maybe a requirement to use tape which leader will carry. Walkers must be comfortable with heights. Note, if the weather is forecast too cold or if rain or water levels are too high, I will change this to a Budawangs walk, same dates. Party limit 6. Exploratory.
A walk with a duration ranging from part-day to multi-day. Multi-day walks will require some form of accommodation or camping. Contact walk leader (owner) for full details.
At our club we use a grading system common to many bushwalking clubs in NSW to indicate the expected level of difficulty of a walk. See: https://www.southcoastbushwalkers.org.au/what-we-do/walk-grading
Grading information can assist you to decide if the walk is suitable for your level of fitness and experience. However, grading is subjective and must only be taken as a guide, so always ask the walk leader for advice if you are unsure about whether the walk is suitable for you.
The walk leader has full discretion in determining if members or introductory members are accepted for any walk.
See the SCBW website , "What to bring" page under "Member Information" for guidelines on what you'll need to bring. https://www.southcoastbushwalkers.org.au/member-information/what-to-bring
The Club’s ethos seeks to undertake more challenging and remote walking with a preference for Grade 4-6 walks but we also include some "Recreational Walks" (RW) which cover Grades 1-3.
