Miles to Bell (Carnarvon Great Walk Trip)

 

Saturday 16 September 2023

Today began with Miles Parkrun, a lovely run along a path beside the creek, where we ran into friends from the coast.

Heading for home we took a different route. We stopped in Warra to look at a collection of historical items. The “Welcome to Warra” log has been secured, due to its adventures during a previous flood.

Dalby was our lunch destination, followed by a walk along Myall Creek.

Our last stop for the day was the town of Bell to look at the Catholic Church and its Biblical Garden.  The art inside the church is stunning, and the garden was excellent with murals of the stations of the cross integrated throughout.  I would have found it helpful if the plants were labelled and had some information on their biblical relevance.

Then home.
