Fairy Dell Walking Track

Fairy Dell Walking Track

It’s not difficult to imagine how this walking track got its name. You get the feeling that fairies might really live here.

Like a scene from Fern Gully, this patch of cool temperate rainforest, full of ferns and moss, makes everything glow green. This short loop track is intensely fragrant, surrounded by tree ferns and towering eucalypts.

The track is wide and well maintained. It has some steps and has moderately steep sections.

There is a large parking area with a toilet block and plenty of picnic tables.

The drive to the walk from Bruthen is via an unsealed road, with some very steep sections. Access is possible in 2WD cars in dry weather, though take car on loose gravel and steep sections.
