It is a serious drive down to McKillops Bridge Campground from Little River Falls. Although this gravel road is not particularly steep it is hazardous due to the long unprotected drop-off that runs along its side and the fact it is very narrow. The signage at the top suggests you check for the presence of any other vehicles via UHF radio, which works only if both you and any other vehicle has one. We don’t, so our fingers were crossed as we proceeded along the road. Sue was on high alert for any sign on other vehicles, whilst I kept my eyes on the road ahead.

The purpose of our multi-day adventure along the Barry Way was to explore the area and complete a few interesting walks if we could find them. On this occasion, it was a signpost on the main road to Tulloch Ard Lookout Walk. We took the turn, finding ourselves driving through some local farms to gain access to Snowy Mountains National Park. Once in the national park the grasslands of the farms gave way to forest and the road became narrower before we reached the start of the walk.

Faced with a hot day a long walk wasn’t very tempting. Instead, we headed off along the nature trail which starts next to McKillops Bridge with a view of walking along the Silver Mine Track until we good some views of the Snowy River from above.

This is a very short walk from the car park next to the Little River Bridge, for us, a short stopover on the way to McKillops Bridge. The track follows the true right side of Little River downstream until it comes back to the river. Here there is a fenced-off viewpoint of the surprisingly large waterfall and plunge pool at its base.
