Starting from the end of Hillbrook Road, Enoggera Reservoir, this walk takes you on a circuit in the diverse woodland of Enoggera Reservoir, crossing Enoggera Creek twice along the way. Expect a hike in a lively forest that is filled with wildlife and birdsong. Speaking of, try to pause and listen to the said birdsong around the creek, it becomes heavenly when combined with the burbling sound of water. The birdlife in the area is rich as you can guess, and king parrots are quite likely to show themselves. Keep an eye out for monitor lizards whilst taking in the scenery. Take care and wear grippy footwear as some parts of the track are quite slippery. Let us begin by acknowledging the Traditional Custodians of the land on which we travel today, and pay our respects to their Elders past and present.
Before you start any bushwalk ensure you;
• Tell someone you trust where you are going and what to do if you are overdue
• Have adequate equipment, supplies, skills & knowledge for the whole journey
• Consider the impact of weather forecasts, park/track closures & fire dangers
• Can respond to emergencies & call for help at any point
• Are healthy and fit enough for this journey
If not, change plans and stay safe. It is okay to delay and ask people for help.
