**Trail Notes**: 4Km return, Grade 3, allow one hour.

**Drive to the start of the walk, from Mulligans camping ground it takes 10 minutes, 6km.**
Popular with day-trippers and campers, Anvil Rock walking track is an easy 4km return walk offering access to spectacular environments and jaw-dropping views.
Starting from the Anvil Rock walking track carpark on Mulligans Drive, you'll pass through eucalypt forest, dramatic heathland and mountain swamps surrounded by towering grass trees. The trail leads to the base of Anvil Rock where you'll be rewarded with views of extraordinary granite formations. The huge Old Mans Hat outcrop is particularly striking, thanks to its balancing boulder. This is a great spot to take a break and enjoy the peaceful surroundings before heading back.
Spring is a perfect time to tackle Anvil Rock walking track as you can take in the area's stunning wildflower displays, including the red Gibraltar Range waratah, pink boronias, white smoke bush and purple match heads.
Animal lovers will also find lots to enjoy in this part of the park. Keep your eyes peeled for sun loving Cunningham's skinks basking on rocky outcrops. And towards twilight you might even spot a tiny parma wallaby emerging from the dense scrub to search for food.
**What to bring:** must have plenty of water 1.5 litres, healthy snacks.
Hiking gear: a medium hiking backpack, hiking clothes: long trousers and shirt with long sleeve are preferable; hiking ankle supportive boots; gaiters; first aid kit; insect repellent (for environmental reasons use the roll on and the cream; AVOID THE SPRAY, Bushman cream is good); hat, sunscreen, gloves; light raincoat; working torch; tissues; mobile phone; walking poles if you like to use them.

**Directions**:. Drive to the start of the walk, from Mulligans camping ground it takes 10 minutes, 6km, just off Mulligans Drive.
