The Giant Stairway

Reviewed By Boondoggler - Nairn, United Kingdom

Starting from Echo Point, the descent down the Giant Stairway is a little tricky with a combination of rocks, steps and staircases amounting to 900 steps with a stop at the first sister. I’d recommend walking an hour along the valley towards scenic world. You then have a choice of paying to use the scenic railway or using the the Furber steps to get back to the top. You then have an easy stroll back to Echo Point. You need a reasonable level of fitness to do the walk. We took 2.5 hours for the circuit at an easy pace. Take lots of water as there is none available in the valley.
