Pix of Dec 15 2013. This 3.5 km (return) Trail links Smith Gully Rd with St Andrews, about 40 km NE of Melbourne. Former goldmining precinct of the 1920s-1930s. Devastated by the 1962 fires - the forest is now mainly regrowth. Track is narrow, winding, rocky, and hilly.
Remains of the sluice channels are visible, but becoming overgrown by encroaching vegetation. Queenstown Cemetery is nearby - this was the original name for St Andrews.
