Neds Gully Walk (Cathedral Range State Park)

This steady uphill hike winds through damp forested gullies and drier woodlands on the higher slopes. Walkers can enjoy a variety of habitats and abundant wildlife along the way. This 2.2km hike takes about 1 hour and starts at Neds Gully Camping Area, winding steeply up through Neds Gully to Neds Saddle. The track is easy follow, but requires a medium level of fitness and some bushwalking experience.

From Neds Saddle, the track splits and can lead to Cathedral Peak, Little Cathedral, Neds Peak and The Farmyard, offering a range of more challenging walks for fit adventurous hikers and excellent viewpoints from the high peaks. This walk also forms part of the Cathedral Range Northern Circuit.

Visitor Tips: Check the weather conditions before setting out, and allow plenty of daylight to complete your walk. The weather on the range can change quickly and there is no shelter, so ensure you are well-equipped, and wear appropriate clothing including sturdy hiking footwear. Carry sufficient water to stay hydrated (there are no natural water sources on the trail). Phone signals are unreliable – hikers should consider carrying a radio or personal locator beacon, and don’t forget to communicate your intentions to friends or relatives before setting out.
