Our walk will start at Faulconbridge Station where will follow the Victory Track along the Sassafrass Gully where we see our first waterfall, the Carinda Falls. We will detour to the Numantia Falls, a hidden gem where we will stop for morning tea.  We then carry on slowly descending to the Glenbrook Creek.  We follow along the creek before meeting the junction at Perch Ponds where we slowly start our ascent to Springwood Station.  Along the way, we will pass Martins Falls and Magdella Falls.  Note the track did suffer a fair bit of damage after the February storms with trees down.  These have largely been cleared now but there may be a bit of scrambling here and there.  Hopefully all the waterfalls will be flowing!  Walk is station to station so accessible by public transport.  If driving, suggest leave car at Springwood Station and catch the train to the start. Please provide your membership number and mobile when booking.
