“Russells Needle is a rocky sandstone spine, separated by a deep saddle from the main cliff line, which sticks out dramatically into the Nattai Valley. The summit ridge offers tremendous views. Attaining the summit, or at least the summit plateau, is achievable for experienced bushwalkers with a head for heights. Some route finding and easy rock scrambling is required. There is no formal track once you reach the Nattai River.”
-An excerpt from bushwalkingnsw.com
On Saturday morning, we’ll hike down to the Nattai River and camp at the foot of the Needle. On Sunday we’ll climb the Needle, pack up and hike back to the cars. It’ll be a grand weekend of camping, funny walking and bantz.
Pre-requisites:
– Good level of physical fitness
– Ideally overnight + off-track hiking experience
– Good head for heights, there will be spicy-ish scrambling involved
