Sightseeing
Walk up (15-30 mins depending on route), or around (45 mins). In the busy summer period, if you are going up, we recommend walking halfway around, then take the signposted summit track from the back. Its steep, but also cooler and much quieter.

Not accessible when the river is running, but a great spot for a fresh water swim. Lots of rocks to jump off. Its about a 10 min walk from the carpark and requires a river crossing at the very start. Then just follow the track.
