• Granite Skywalk CastleRock Porongurup NP

    16 de marzo, Australia ⋅ ☁️ 18 °C

    I was up early this morning. It's a cloudy day.
    But it should not rain so much today.
    So I got up, had breakfast and left the campground at 8:30.
    Went to quickly buy some crackers and needed to fuel up. Fuel is cheaper here than anywhere else so far. But driving around the city center I saw a gas station that was really cheap. 1,66$ per liter! Amazing. Extra turned around to get there to fuel up.
    After that I drove to the Porongurup National Park.
    Also here it's very cloudy and only 18 degrees.
    But I was motivated to do the Granite Skywalk. Nice walk up the hill. Only a few steep sections otherwise it was a nice flow. It's a 4,4km return track. With around 270m elevation.
    At the end I had to climb over some rocks to get to the Skywalk. Unfortunately no good view with the clouds but it was still definitely worth it to go all the way up. On the way down I had to wait a few times for people that were climbing up. So I started to talk to a German girl, Michelle and we ended up walking all the way back together.
    I was back at the car park after 1 hour and 45 minutes. That was a nice one!
    I even saw some black cockatoos but had no change to take a picture of them. They are flying around here everywhere. I saw them quite a few times while driving.
