We will meet at Springwood Train Station and slowly descend the valley to the Glenbrook Creek passing through the deep bushland full of turpentine trees. A stop for morning tea will be had at Glenbrook Creek. After following the creek for a few kilometres, we then start the steep ascent to Martins Lookout. The view out over the valley is worth the climb and makes a great spot for lunch. A quick descent down before rejoining the Sassafras track slowly climbing back up to Springwood station. A lovely stretch of track passing several waterfalls crossing the creek numerous times.
