The 4km (return) Pholis Gap walking track takes about 1.5 to 2 hours and is perfect if you're looking for spectacular views across to Wollumbin-Mount Warning and the dramatic mountains of the Nightcap escarpment. this moderate walking track offers spectacular mountain scenery, and is ideal for families and keen birdwatchers. Starting at Mount Nardi, the track meanders through lush rainforest of yellow carabeen and towering brushbox. You might see Albert's lyrebirds and brush turkeys darting through the understorey. Descending westwards, look for grass trees and New England blackbutt along the drier ridges. Reaching Pholis Gap, gaze across the surrounding valleys that were once a part of a volcanic crater. Looking to the skies, you might be lucky to see a peregrine falcon surfing on the updrafts. INFO: https://www.nationalparks.nsw.gov.au/things-to-do/walking-tracks/pholis-gap-walking-track
