Located in the picturesque Aniseed Valley, the Hacket Track offers a serene escape into nature, perfect for visitors seeking a peaceful outdoor adventure. The track suits all fitness levels, making it an ideal choice for families, casual walkers, and seasoned hikers alike. As you meander along the path, you'll encounter several charming bridges and the occasional picnic spot, perfect for a relaxing break. Keep an eye out for local wildlife, including native birds, that add a melodic soundtrack to your journey. Whispering Falls: It’s a short 1-hour walk (one way) to the series of waterfalls at the head of the valley. The upper and lower waterfalls are approximately 5 minutes apart and are best seen after a period of heavy rain. However, one of the bridges has been washed out, so it is unlikely you’ll be able to reach the waterfalls if the river is too high. Resembling a light rain shower, delicate droplets trickle down the limestone and splash on the valley floor below. A beautiful picnic area sits atop the upper waterfall as you continue along the track to reach the open meadow above. Browning Hut and Starveall Hut Tracks: For those seeking a bit more of a challenge, the Hacket Track serves as the gateway to the longer Browning Hut and Starveall Hut tracks. Whether you're after a leisurely stroll or an invigorating hike, the Hackett Track in Aniseed Valley offers a rewarding and accessible experience for all who visit.
