Views fit for Gentlemen



Fit for Ladies too. There probably weren't any on Governor Phillip's exploratory mission up the Hawkesbury in 1789, but we had both ladies and gentlemen in our bushwalking group recently,

We walked the 10km each way from the Canoelands Rd track head. It's a straightforward leg stretch mainly along a fire trail, and you get to see some very fine views of the Hawkesbury River. Governor Phillip is the gentleman who gave the place its name. He arrived by boat, and camped overnight there. Hence the name: Gentleman's Halt.
