Continue straight: From the hut, this walk follows the management trail north-east
[120] (initially keeping hut and valley to your right). The trail immediately bends left and follows beside the covered aqueduct around the side of the valley
[121]. The trail leads over a few small creeks
[122] and past water catchment devices
[123] for the aqueduct. The trail leads up and down through a few small valleys and through the dead snow gum trees
[124] but about 1.5km from the hut, the trail begins to head consistently downhill
[125]. Further down the hill, the trail bends right
[126] and passes beside a tall rock cutting
[127], where there are great views up along the Munyang River
[128] (to your right). The cutting continues for about 130m, bending left partway along. The walk then continues down the hill for another 600m where it passes around a locked gate
[129] to find a large clearing
[130] under the power lines
[131] and a ‘Disappointment Spur Trail’ sign
[132]. The walk continues straight across the timber bridge
[133] WARNING: Bridge has been destroyed and not replaced. No passable, bending left to follow a fence
[134] to the switching yard
[135] and sealed section of road
[136]. The walk continues along the sealed road beside the switching yard and soon comes to a clear intersection
[137] behind the power station marked with a ‘Schlink Trail’ sign
[138] (pointing up another trail).
Continue straight: From the intersection, this walk heads to the other side of the power station, following the fence and keeping it to your left
[139] (heading in the opposite direction to the ‘Schlink Trail’ sign). The path soon leads past two large feeder pipes
[140] and goes behind a concrete building
[141]. The walk then comes to the front of the power station
[142] and crosses the wide bridge
[143] over the Snowy River. Here the walk comes to the Munyang car park
[144], on your left.
