Comment: Bushwalks on NSW South Coast

Hi Nic,

With a group of friends we did a weekend walk to the Castle and Valley of the Gods about 6 years ago and carried our overnight gear up. I found it very difficult due to the weight on my back and struggled on the way back as well.

My hubby didnt feel well and thought he had indigestion/heartburn but insisted on helping me in the steeper bits. When we got home I made him see a Dr and he was very quicly diagnosed with artery blockages. We went to Sydney for an overnight routine angiogram and he had open heart surgery the same day so we were there for a week.
It was a close call - the artery blocked was described to me as 'the wodow maker' by the cardiologist.

I am lately tempted for us to return but just to do the day walk once the days get a bit longer. It has been long enough for me to forget the pain!LOL

Regards

Heather
