Continue straight: From the base of the rocks
[77], this walk starts the arduous climb up the Korrowall Knife-edge. Ascending the Korrowall Knife-edge is a hard climb, vertical in places and much of the climbing will involve both hands – some people use ropes to help lift heavy packs. This walk initially heads around to the left of the first boulder to head up through the eroded steep valley
[78] between the rocks. The walk continues to scramble up the side of the rocks
[79], then climbs vertically up a crack in the rock
[80] to a small flat area
[81], offering the first distant view
[82] for this climb. The walk continues by climbing up a 3m rock wall
[83], then up the eroded track
[84] before climbing up through the obvious gap
[85] in the next rock wall. At the top of this climb is another great view
[86] and a short distance further up, this faint track passes a rock with a hole/cave
[87] (on your right). From here, the walk follows the worn track up through a couple more rock gullies
[88], still generally keeping the rock wall to your right (and passing a couple of arrows
[89]). This brings the walk to an exposed flat area, with red dirt and fantastic views
[90]. The walk continues by climbing up through the next eroded gully
[91] to the top of the Korrowall Knife-edge, where there is a large rock wall on your left
[92].
Continue straight: From the top of Korrowall Knife-edge, this walk heads south following a worn track that initially heads steeply down beside the large rock wall
[93] (keeping the wall to your left). The track passes a small cave
[94] at the base of this cliff then climbs up beside the cliff
[95] to the top of the ridge
[96], past the rocks
[97] to find a view to the left
[98]. Here the faint track veers right
[99] to follow along the base of another cliff
[100]. The walk then heads up a short but steep climb
[101], where a short flat walk
[102] leads to a fantastic view on your right, looking over Cedar Creek valley to Narrow Neck
[103]. After following this faint track a further 60m south along the base of another cliff
[104], this walk then climbs up the middle of a steep gully
[105] – just past the top of this climb, the track bends sharp left and leads up
[106] the hill for about 50m to enter a lovely she oak forest
[107], a clearing
[108] and the Corowal Plateau campsite
[109].
