Easy to find and easy to climb, Stoney Hill offers a great hike for beginners. Approximately 3 kilometres in length, the trail is undemanding in both athletic and navigational skill: literally anyone can do it.

From Genoa Bay Road, you’ll turn left onto a small paved public road that may or may not be named Stoney Hill Road. 1.3 kilometres up this apparently unmarked road, you’ll find parking on either side, designated for the trailhead.

Follow the trail into the woods. Pretty soon (after about 200 meters), the trail you’re on will end at the remains of an old road.

You can either follow the road or the path it breaks off into: the trail is a 3.2k loop with approximately 1 kilometre of hiking parallel to the narrows sandwiched by about 1k of hiking in the woods on each side. Don’t be fooled by the trail marked “More Difficult” – neither route is particularly challenging.

Remember, however, that you will want to be prepared if you choose to visit in adverse weather- always make sure you’re wearing appropriate footwear for your hikes. The bluffs are rocky and may be slippery when wet.

Whichever route you choose will take you through about a kilometre of beautiful wooded landscapes before you reach your first lookout.

Over the course of a kilometre stretch, you’ll have 5 different lookouts to choose from. Of course, we pretty much stopped in awe of each and every one.
