Information

Built in 1905 by John Baesjou, Hill Springs was occupied by his family until 1910.
A 500m return walk to the ruins from the car park can often be overgrown with ferns. Watch out for ticks along the walk. Walk trail surface consists of natural pavements made up of rock material including exposed granite and gravel. The trail is unmarked but vegetation has been cleared to delineate the path.

The trail also visits the grave of William Ponton, John's uncle through marriage.
