The Castle is so gnarly even total legend @turiapitt teamed up with a guide, Zinon from @bignatureadventures and her mate @samwphoto. 🙌Here's how it went down in her words -
If you’re from my local area, you’re probably a hardened bushie (complete with cork hat) and have summited The Castle already.

If you're not from my local area, allow me to give you some context. "The Castle" is a bushwalk/climb up to an iconic peak in Morton National Park, a rocky outcrop that towers out of the beautiful Budawangs.
I have an irrational fear of heights, sheer cliff faces, vertigo-inducing escarpments and precipices of any kind. Hence, I’ve never done The Castle.

But you know when you're really scared of something, there’s a part of you that knows that it might be actually good for you?

That was The Castle for me. It was a metaphorical (and also literal!) mountain that I knew I had to climb.

So with the help of Zinon at @bignatureadventures and @samwphoto, I did it last weekend!

Was it hard? Yeah, climbing up massive boulders with only an old guide rope to assist me was terrifying. Zinon harnessed me up properly so I knew I couldn’t fall, but still, I was climbing a rock face with a drop at least a couple hundred metres high, so, I feel like my fear was justified, y'know?

Massive thanks to Zinon and Sam for helping me do this.

Zinon's a mate but working with him to do this has allowed me to see what a pro he is. If you're looking for an outdoorsy adventure, check out @bignatureadventures. He'll get you out there (and also home safely!). And big ups to my mate Sam for filming the whole thing. He got the sickest footage and I can't wait to share it with you guys.
On that front, we might need to wait a few weeks, because the very next day, Sam's wife had their baby! When I asked him what was better, climbing The Castle with me or having a baby, he said the baby. Obviously. Massive congrats Sammy and Neesh!

The promise of a great day for adventures at Kangaroo Valley. It's so lovely at this time of year, with warm hearths at eateries, accommodation and this landscape to explore. Time to plan the weekend!

So close to @ricksteinatbannisters you can almost smell the food cooking. Bannisters Point at Mollymook is one of the spots where unspoilt nature meets creature comforts of the best kind.

Meet Sunny & Kaiki from @islandsushi2019! We're so lucky to have them here, and their poke bowls are the best! We can't wait for their Winter ramen though... 🍜 Catch them at the Sussex Inlet Surf Life Saving Club!

Oh hello little cabin! Imagine sipping mulled wine by your own open fire, sleeping in simple luxury and waking to adventures like spotting whales as you cruise or walk some of the prettiest coast that New South Wales has to offer. Shoalhaven winters are awesome.

The sunday roast just got a makeover at Berry! @farmeadowtable has been gently cooking up a new place for us to eat, chill and learn. If you love long tables, cooking classes (with catering and take home recipes) and intimate, rustic dining then this is a place for you!
