Continue straight: From the lookout, the walk follows the sandy bush track to the south, leaving the lookout platform behind and to the right. This section of the walk also undulates through nice forest on a sandy track. The walk then reaches the intersection with ‘The Lilly Pilly Loop Trail’.
Veer left: From the intersection, the walk follows the left arrow on the ‘Lilly Pilly Loop Trail’ sign, along the sandy bush track. The track immediately drops through a gully, then winds through some nice forest for a short distance before arriving at the intersection with the ‘Burrawang Walking Track’.
Veer right: From the intersection, the walk follows the sandy bush track up the hill, leaving the ‘Lilly Pilly Loop Trail’ sign on the right. After a while the track descends, with sections of erosion control board walkway, through nice forest, before reaching the intersection signposted with ‘Lilly Pilly Loop Link Trail’.
Turn right: From the intersection, the walk follows the ‘Lilly Pilly Loop Link Trail’ arrow, along the narrow bush track, going up the hill. This section of track meanders through an interesting mixture of patches of littoral rainforest and some drier forest. One very sandy section of the track is held in place by low, timber retaining walls. The walk continues, eventually climbing a little through thick, vine covered vegetation, to reach an intersection marked with a ‘Lilly Pilly Loop Link Trail’ sign.
Turn right: From the intersection, the walk follows the sandy bush track, going up the hill, away from the nearby road. The track runs along a ridge line, through relatively dry forest for a while, before dropping a little, into moist littoral rainforest. The walk meanders through this beautiful area of rainforest, passing a ‘Rainforests’ information board, to the left, and then emerges to a nice vista at the edge of Tuggerah lake.
