A wide shot of rolling hills with lots of trees

A classic walk in Taggerty starting with a warm-up then a steep climb, a high peak, a spectacular ridge walk, a gully descent and a river flat walk to complete the circuit in the Cathedral Range, a spectacular seven kilometre long ridge of sharply upturned sedimentary rock.

GRADE | LENGTH | TYPE: Hard grade (due to the steepness) 12 km circuit walk.

ACTIVITY DESCRIPTION: From Cooks Mill car park there is a warm-up walk for about 1 km up Cerebus Road, followed by a steep climb up a well marked track. Before reaching the top, turn north and head around a gully to another track junction. Follow the right hand track to detour to North Jawbone Peak. Return to the main track and continue north to the Cathedral Ridge. Follow the ridge to The Cathedral (Cathedral Peak) and then north again to Cathedral North, the highest point in the walk.

Return, and having passed The Cathedral again, find the steep rocky track east and down to Neds Saddle. Take care as this section can be slippery, especially in wet weather. Continue further east and up to Neds Peak, then on and down to rejoin Neds Gully Track. Down in the Little River flat and before the river, turn right at the Little River Walking Track and head upstream (south) to the start at Cooks Mill car park.
