Wootton Historical Railway Walk
This six kilometre walk starts off at Sam's Camp Picnic Area, with Wang Wauk Forest Way marking its halfway point.
The first section of the walk takes in rainforest and cleared, grassy areas used by logging vehicles in the early 1900s. The walk follows remnants of old logging railways and bridges, passing by waterfalls, creeks and through gully rainforest and magnificent regrowth flooded gums, before finishing at the remains of the Trestle Bridge.
This Walk is maintained by Forestry Corporation and The Wootton Community Network.
Trestle Bridge
The remains of an historical trestle bridge, formerly used to transport logs within the forest.
