| People's Park - Hogarth Falls |
| It was an overcast day, with showers coming and going. But we were here so we may as well go for a walk. The car park was great if you didn't have a caravan in tow, so we had to park outside and walk a short distance to the gate. The facilities looked good and the usual sign denoted the start of the walk. The path was well made and flat with boardwalks in the wet areas. The boardwalks even had faux grass on them perhaps for safety and certainly for aesthetics. There were quite a few signs denoting the various history aspects and plant species. The falls themselves were roaring with mist blanketing the area making getting a good photograph near impossible due to water on the lens. As usual you retrace your steps back to the start. This time we noticed an orchid on the way. How did we miss it going in! Easily I would say. |
