Hi, I was just wondering as I was heading down to Canberra next weekend if there was a way to get to the trail area featured in the Mont. As far as I am aware you are unable to reach the trail going through the paddock which was the Mont camping area. Thanks

Park at the sparrow hill car park and across the road. Here's a loop I did in January.

If you are checking your way on Google Map, http://goo.gl/maps/jVNa9, be aware that what you see is outdated since few months now, Kings Hwy is going straight along the edge of Sparrow (you can see on the satellite image the construction work); it's even worse on Bing map.

When coming from Canberra, you will see a sign to turn left for Kowen Forest. You will going back on the old highway, which is now a dead end road and the car park at the end.

Here is a recent loop of both Kowen and Sparrow the long way (not mine, my loop for both is 20km).

Ah, the hyperspace bypass has been opened at last. At least they didn't demolish the Earth this time. Bloody Vogons. Sad
