27 Kids Nature Trail - Gibraltar Rock and Omahu Bush

Kids Nature Trail - Gibraltar Rock and Omahu Bush with Marie Gray and Paul Tebbutt, Summit Road Society

Join us for this kids adventure around Gibraltar Rock and down to the waterfall in Omahu Bush.
The first section up to Gibraltar Rock is 1km return and is suitable for younger children. It involves a short walk through native bush, across grassland and up to a 502m high volcanic crag, Gibraltar Rock. We will stop for morning tea and then return back down to the bush. Here families will have the option to return to the carpark or continue down to the waterfall.
The walk to Anne’s Falls through Omahu Bush follows Kirks track and Nelsons tracks. This walk is about 5km in total and is suitable for adults and older children. The bush is a magical place, full of old remnant and regenerating bush and renowned for its ferns. Children will be given a nature trail checklist to find plants, flowers and fungi as we go. We will have lunch at the bottom of Rhodes track before heading back up through the bush to the carpark.
Children need to be accompanied by an adult with maximum of 5 children per adult.
