Brontë Lagoon

The views over Lake Burbury this morning were beautiful with the fog hanging low over the water obscuring the surrounding mountains. 

Today we drove through the Franklin-Gordon National Park and stopped to have a look at few places,

Our first stop was the lovely forest walk to Nelson Falls.

We then did the short walk along Frenchman’s Cap track to the suspension bridge over the Franklin River.

We stopped in the carpark at Derwent Bridge and had lunch (it was after 2pm and the pub was closed). We weren’t interested in staying here so we continued on.

We decided to go to Brontë Lagoon for the night. We could see the smoke from the bushfires. Luckily they  were far enough away to not bother us.

Spotted another snake when we went for a walk towards the fishing shacks

Big pipeline here too… part of the hydro scheme.

We got a great spot again. But the water wasn’t too inviting.

It was a nice night for a camp fire …
