Kanagra Walls plateaux


The plateau on the right can be traversed and then other walking routes can be be picked up to find your way into the valley or you cam try your luck by bush bashing straight down, a good 3.5 hour effort!!

Kanagra Boyd National Park NSW, Kanagra Walls


This view is taken on the first part of the walk form the end of the road as you start to walk to the beginning of the plateau climb. The whole area is pristine with wedged tail eagles soaring off the warm air currents from the cliff walls. The water in the valleys is crystal clear and lovely to drink but the walking can get quit hard to get down/up from the valley bottom.

The Riverside Hotel, Kendal, Lake District UK


The Riverside Hotel is a quaint old hotel in Kendal, the Lake District. I stayed there last year on a walking trip to the area. Kendal is a town that has a horrible one way system with mad traffic jams during July. Trying to get to the hotel even though you keep passing it is a real accomplishment. I drove around the entire town 3 times before I managed it and then only when I had given up and was leaving the town!!

The second lake at Konigsee, Barvaria Germany

Taken last summer ( Northern hemisphere not southern that is). A lovely walk after you alight the boat from the first lake. Stopped for a cold beer before the walk.
