Exploring Watermill Track, Kurth Kiln Park

Watermill Track is a gated management road in the Kurth Kiln Regional Park, 65 km east of Melbourne.

I explored this 4 km (return) scenic track on Thursday afternoon September 9, 2010, starting at the Beenak Rd.

The track follows the McCrae Creek Gully, reaching a cleared space which is understood to be the site of a former timber mill.

A short foottrack leads to the creek, which originates high up at the Shiprock Falls.

There is a change in elevation from 281 m to 225 m.

The Photos shows the scenery, track, environment, and creek. I have included images of the Blue Range, taken from Beenak Rd, which show the Mt Beenak Communications/Fire Tower.
