Walls of Jerusalem 2018

Walls of Jerusalem 2018 This adventure started almost 8 months earlier when Erica started planning my surprise birthday hiking adventure. We snagged super cheap flights from Brisbane to Launceston and a quick trip turned into four days in Walls of Jerusalem followed by six days on the Overland Track. Monday 05 Feb Our first day started off with a hearty brekky at Great Scot before taking our hire car for a spin out to Mole Creek caves. We took the Great Cathedral tour through Marakoopa Cave and were blown away by the crystalline structures. In the main cavern the cave ceiling looked like the night sky illuminated by the green glow of glow worms trying to attract some prey.   A further 45 min drive down dirt roads had us taking a break for lunch on the banks of the Rowallan Dam. We already started our hiking style lunches with tuna and noodles. I would have preferred a feast of rainbow trout that you could catch in the dam but never brought my fishing gear
