March Creek Track

An initial gentle walk crossing March Creek soon gives way to a steep climb that gains 500 m of elevation. The track ends at the conservation area boundary, at around 800 m above sea level.

Access is signposted on the western side of McKinnon Road, north of Browns Road. Cross the stile and follow the markers to the conservation area boundary.

Weather: The Rock and Pillar Conservation Area is very exposed and subject to extreme temperatures – hot and dry in summer, freezing cold and covered in snow in winter.

Avalanches: Avalanche terrain is classified as 'simple' at the northern end of the Rock and Pillar Range and on the tops, and 'complex' on the eastern faces. If you plan to be in this area in winter or spring be avalanche alert.
