When I posted this walk in my personal Facebook account I didn’t mention the track name, so I’m not entirely sure where it was. Nevertheless, I’ve found pictures online of the same view as we saw, and that was labelled as Wombat Hill Lookout, so I think this is the same walk. It’s near the picturesque town of Berrima in the Southern Highlands, because we stopped there on the way back to Sydney. The walk was a bit monotonous as it followed a fire trail for most of the way, but the views were nice at the turnaround point.

Track notes for the walk to Wombat Hill Lookout can be found in Take a Walk in Southern NSW & the ACT.  The trail is on Google Maps here. You start at the end of Meryla Pass Road.
