Our drive home

Day 3
Our short stay has come to an end, but with a late check out we were able to take the walk up above the property. The way up was a bit of a climb and was easy to follow. The return home was not so easy. Once we exited the wooded hillside there was no really defined path, just fields. From the map and with the help of some other directions (arrows on trees) we were able to find our way back. It was a lovely end to an enjoyable couple of days.
There was more to come though. We took the gravel road from the property to Dungog. This was a very pretty drive and the road was in good condition. We arrived in Dungog and called in to the Info centre to ask about the road to Chichester Dam. The drive to Dungog had not taken as long as we first though so we were still able to have lunch and then drive out to the lake.
With the summer rains we were lucky to see the lake spilling over the dam which made for a fine sight. On the way down to the lake we saw some wallabies by the side of the road and they were still there on our way back. They posed beautifully for us.

Then it was time to head home and back to civilisation. It was a lovely couple of days, but a 4WD would have been very useful.
