Description

You can pick up O'Farrells Track after descending via the Cass Ridge. The southern end of the track leads to the boundary of Living Springs education centre.

Heading north, the grassy track gently sidles around the hillside above Governors Bay for 30 minutes, past the junction of the Bush Road and Kanuka tracks, before finishing where it meets private land. Kanuka forest briefly covers the track with views up to bush-clad hills.
