Trip background information:-
Lowes Mount State Forest
========================
Lowes Mount State Forest covers an area of about around 1,500 hectares and is just north of Oberon.
The forest is nested between O’Connell Rd and Lowes Mount Rd.
There is plenty to explore and We only looked at a small part of the forest on the recce. The forest offers plenty of climbs and decents.
A lot smooth tracks, with some rutted and some slippery clay. There are some creek crossings but we did not attempt of find these on the recce.
There are amazing views of the country side from some of the tracks.
