A brides takes you over the Dove River which was flowing nicely after some overnight rain.
There are many small tributaries flowing into the lake the trickle of which make beautiful sounds as you walk.
The track here consists on small light coloured rocks that are quite gorgeous to look at.

Looking back and seeing the different colours of themany species of trees.
A fabulous section of grasses surrounding the band walk.
