We’ll be doing a day hike on Megafest Sunday 8th December near Lithgow, walking out to the Lost City Viewpoint and back. (https://www.alltrails.com/explore/trail/australia/new-south-wales/lost-city-viewpoint-from-bungleboori-campground). At approximately 6.6km with 150m elevation gain and showcasing rock pagodas, this is a great walk for anyone, including beginner bushwalkers and the injured.

Please include your plan to get to/from the walk so we can organise car spots.

Getting there

– For those camping at Megafest, meet at Cathedral of Ferns at 9am. I’ll have 4 spots in my car, and we’ll see how we go from there.
– For those going directly there, meet at the alternative visitor parking for Bungleboori at 10am (https://maps.app.goo.gl/4EtkdRrfRVfBMHSy6).

Bungleboori will be closed to visitors until the end of 2024 for a picnic area upgrade. An alternative visitor parking area is located 800m west of Bungleboori on Maiyingu Marragu Trail (Blackfellows Hand Trail). Signs will be erected to direct visitors to the alternative parking area.
