Mt Cargill-Bethunes
Gully Walkway
WALKING
Yes, it's possible to drive up 676m Mt Cargill, but that's not the point. The track (3½
hours return) starts from Norwood St, which is accessed from North Rd. From Mt Car-
gill, a trail continues to the 10-million-year-old, lava-formed Organ Pipes and, after an-
other half hour, to Mt Cargill Rd on the other side of the mountain.
