13 July 2003 - Cable Bay Walkway Leader: Gretchen Williams

A gorgeous day!! After a minor transport problem the start time turned into a more leisurely departure from the Glen at 9.30 am. We followed the walk way track, stopped at the top of the airstrip for a break and admired the views. The bush section is always great to be in and from there it’s not far to the saddle where you leave the track. It was decided to carry on along the track to Sentinel Hill so that those who hadn’t been there before could see down to Cable Bay and the beach. We had lunch there and admired the views. We went back down to the saddle, through the farm gate, across a slightly flat paddock veering left along sheep and goat tracks and then down the cliff via a couple of scree-type slopes to the beach. We boulder-hopped our way back to The Glen, investigated the remains of a ship wreck, watched the wildlife (shags and seals) and admired the views.
