Carry at least 1–1.5 litres of water, especially in warmer months. Wear sturdy walking shoes with good grip on dirt. Avoid peak summer (December–February) when heat and bushfire risk are high. Spring (August–October) offers pleasant conditions and wildflower interest. Check local conditions before you go.
