Following the Great North Walk this walk will take us on a steep descent down from Cowan Station via Cowan Creek to Jerusalem Bay.  After a few more ups and downs we get to Brooklyn Dam before the steep descent to Brooklyn and the Hawkesbury River where there are plenty of facilities.  The route is mainly rocky walking tracks and some firetrail.  Joint walk with the Bush Club.
