Didn’t want to risk life, limb or child scrambling down to the actual point so we stuck to the path – a classic she-oak needle-strewn forest loop invitingly called the Explosives Reserve Walking Track.
No dancing through landmines here – the area was just a buffer zone when munitions were stored across the water in Bantry Bay.
The reserve looks to have had little or no development since European settlement which may explain why it’s such a lovely walk with great trees and lots of wild flowers. But water views are few and far between and there are no tracks down to the Harbour (or at least none that we could find).
Still, husband thinks it’s one of the better bush walks in the city. Wife likes the rocks, he likes the trees.
