I have wanted to walk this hill for a long time. The way it suddenly bursts out of the creek makes it look a lot tougher than it is.
I parked the car at 35º 12.128' 149º 05.509', the other side of the Barton Highway, you should try the same. From the carpark follow the bike path under the bridges beside Ginnenderra Creek. Cross the creek at the little weir to keep your feet dry. Moving upstream a little you will find there is no fence and a trail all the way to the top.
If you park sensibly this is a child friendly and dog friendly walk.
