 This walk will explore the trails and bike tracks in the Kalianna and Gap Road areas of Nail Can Hill and the small section of NCH on the eastern side of Gap Road.

Such tracks include Kaliana, Yambla (Spider Orchid) trails, parts of Ridge Gap Rd trails, Spider Orchid, Terminated, No More Secrets, Castle and Home Run tracks, and eastern NCH tracks.

We will meet in the carpark behind the old tech college and Kalianna buildings.

Access to the driveway is only coming from the southern end of Sackville Street; before it becomes the Gap Road that takes a left turn and heads up the hill. Do not attempt to enter the driveway if coming down Gap Road; just proceed on to the roundabout and come back to turn left into the driveway.

Bring a morning tea snack.   DOGS ok.

There are no toilets available on this walk.
