Key Features

2. Sandstone Shelf - the Hartmann Park walk encompasses a shelf of rock which offers some magnificent landscape features.3. Soil Variety - the Hartmann Park walk possesses an interesting variety of soils, from grainy sandstone to thick granite, allowing for a diverse range of native species to flourish.4. Human influence has been minimised along the track and on the northern side of the creek, allowing for a largely undisturbed natural ecosystem to thrive throughout the Hartmann Park walk.
