Other things to do in the National Park and further south after the conclusion of the tour:

After the tour concludes and your guide departs, you may want to have a bbq lunch with the gas BBQ's supplied in the National Park, and maybe a bush walk along the Chapman Brook. Please note that this is not part of the tour so if you want to do this you will need to bring your own food and supplies to cook a BBQ.
