From Gloucester Tops walk into Barrington Tops National Park via the Link Trail, a gently undulating track through sub alpine woodland and antarctic beech forest. Visit Darby Munros hut along the way. Camp at Wombat Creek. On Sunday, leaving tents behind, take a day walk into the Plateau area of Barrington Tops. Climb the short steep ascent up to Carey's Peak (1544m, the highest point in the park) and Aeroplane Hill. Walk Edwards Swamp and Black Swamp, find the source of the Barrington river. Monday, return down the Link Trail to Gloucester Tops and the Cars.
Note: Be prepared for an alpine climate. The walk will be cancelled if heavy rain is forecast.
