We lunched at the lookout where an old tree has forced roots through and lifted a mass of granite. We had great views of the surrounding farm lands. The walk distance was 4.54km.
On Wednesday November 4, eight walkers set off from Ridge road in the Warby Ranges toward the Pangarang Lookout. The weather was fine and the bush was looking fresh after the recent rain. A profusion of bright yellow Golden Everlastings lined most of the track, with the occasional blue of Finger flowers, Wahlenbergias and Rock Isotomes.

About Easy WalksEasy Walks are aimed at maintaining fitness by introducing people to bushwalking and giving previous bushwalkers the opportunity to continue bushwalking on shorter, easier and well defined tracks. Walks will
be approximately 5 - 7 kms without a lot of climbing, usually within an hour’s drive of Benalla. Participants will require sturdy shoes & be able to carry a backpack containing snack, lunch, adequate water, water-proof jacket, and personal items. Members are asked to notify walk leaders of attendance at least 3 days prior to the walk to enable carpooling,travel costs, and other arrangements.
