Sledge Track Loop is a short walk option from the larger Sledge Track. It starts and ends at the Mackay Cottage site and navigates around a wetlands with flax plantings. The main walk typically takes about 1 hour and 30 minutes, whereas the loop walk can be completed in approximately 10 minutes. It serves as a pleasant extension to the Gums Loop Walk since the loop walk diverges from that track.
