Rollasons Falls & The Big Walk : February 17

On this fine summer’s day, 22 walkers travelled to Mt Buffalo; six of them opted for the short walk to Rollasons Falls, and return; whilst 16 opted for a section of The Big Walk.

The Rollasons Falls walkers took a well formed track from the picnic area, through the bush to the upper and lower viewing points of the Rollasons Falls, and the rock pool of Buffalo Creek. 

Lunch was enjoyed at this spot, before returning via the bush track to the picnic area, and the group then enjoyed a break at Porepunkah on the way home. 

The Big Walk walkers joined ‘The Big Walk’ approx 400 metres south of the Rollasons Falls carpark, where Rosellas were spotted along the track through the Candlebark Gums.  We zig-zagged across the granite slabs, enjoying morning tea with fantastic views, before reaching Marriotts Lookout. 

The track then continued zig-zagging through the forest, with Alpine Ash, Snowgums and Mountain Gums.  Reeds Lookout was found prior to reaching The Gorge, where lunch was enjoyed in the shade, at a picnic table and alongside a fallen log. 

After lunch, the remaining lookouts were checked out for views, before heading back along the track towards Rollasons Falls carpark for Pat’s famous afternoon tea.
