After seeing a fantastic display of fungi out at Lane Cove Bushland Park, I though it may be worthwhile doing a walk through part of Lane Cove Valley between Thornleigh and Porters Creek Bridge. This was a station to station walk and was largely a repeat of my walk from 16 April 2015. Most of this walk passes through Lane Cove National Park. It is easy to organise a walk like this from Thornleigh Station to Macquarie Park Station. The track, most of it being part of the Great North Walk is well signposted.
How was the fungi? Not the colourful display from my visit the day before to the much, much smaller Lane Cove Bushland Park, but enough was out to make the trip interesting and worthwhile. Also – it is a nice walk, mostly through forest with the sounds of abundant birds. The walk is a mixture of track and fire trail.
The fungi was well spread out along the walk, and I stopped frequently to set up my camera and tripod for photos. As well as fungi – a few orchids were out. Here is a selection of photos –
