Pearl Beach to Warrah Lookout


We're doing a 4 day walk in the not too distance future, so part of our fitness plan is to do a bush walk every fortnight. So armed with my new walking shoes and some water we headed off on the 5.1 km loop that is Pearl Beach to Warrah Lookout.

The recommended time is 2 hour return and we managed it in 1 hour 26 minutes, which I was pretty pleased with considering they count it as a moderate walk.

I felt pretty good for most of it, my ankles were a bit stiff from yesterdays run, but they're was very little puffing or strain on the legs.

I found the walk using the online resource http://www.wildwalks.com/, which allows you to download walk notes and maps.

In summary:

Time: 1 hr 26 min

Terrain: Rocky, small climbs

Temperature: Humid, 31C

Heart Rate: Max 161; Average 135
