O'Grady's Falls Loop
This extension of the O'Grady's Falls return walk adds a dash of challenge and can be walked in either direction. From the Falls you double back to Woods Track and climb steeply to the Pinnacle Road, then cross to the Fern Glade Track. Look for a sign just above the Pinnacle Road pointing to Rocky Whelan's cave, which is well worth the 2 minute side trip. Cross Radfords Track to continue down Fern Glade Track to the car park on Huon Rd, or take Pillinger Drive Track back to Fern Tree Park. Dogs are welcome but must be kept on lead at all times.
