Blessington Track

 
Blessington Track
South Arm
 
We met on Jetty Road at South Arm, with a lovely view of kunanyi Mt Wellington, and the Alum Cliffs
 



 
 
 

A des res for you Tom!




 
The first section of track winds through wooded vegetation between the shore and residences, with views across River Derwent







With a bit of a drop onto small beaches or rock ledges with birds resting or feeding






 


Descended to Fort Beach just where it touches Blessington Street with a small parking area








Another des res.



And onto Pot Beach...


 
good timing Jay

 
  
...with good views of Iron Pot lighthouse




There is a war memorial and firing range in these parts









 
 
 






Lots of interesting rock formations, and a couple of snakes at the end of the beach

 

 
 
 
Heading back, into some threatening weather











To lunch
