Yarrowyck
Crossing
Yarrowyck Crossing is a picnic/BBQ area located on the sandy banks
on the Gwydir. Once upon a time, there was a low level bridge
crossing the river here, but this washed away some time ago.
Access to the area is from a dirt track, which starts on the
Thunderbolt's Way, about 20km west of Uralla (S 30° 30.286 E 151°
22.650). The road can be pretty bumpy, and water often crosses the
road at the floodway - check the depth before you cross.
Once you get there you can have a BBQ on the provided facilities,
and there are picnic tables and toilets too. There's plenty of good
places to swim, and there's a natural waterslide through slippery
granite rocks about 300m downstream. Or just build sandcastles -
it's up to you... but don't forget to look for the cache. It's a
regular lock and lock container, with plenty of swaps. There's a
little bit of wire laying around GZ - mind your step.
