Landscape & Geology trail
The view from Yat Rock is arguably one of the most beautiful in the country. The rock has attracted visitors for many years for aesthetic reasons. It is the geological and landscape history of the area that underlies this beauty. The aim of this short trail is to explain that history, to interpret the views and to add an extra layer of interest and understanding.
This driving/walking trail covers approximately 2 miles and takes one to two hours to complete.
