Cradle Mountain - The Enchanted Walk

After the trekking of the Dove Lake, Lucy was rather insistent that we do the "Enchanted Walk" which is just nearby. Here, one is promised of seeing cascading creek, ancient pines and myrtle trees surrounded by lichen and moss. For the lucky some, an encounter with wombats and platypus. 

As promised, we were not disappointed and the walk indeed was an enchanting experience. If anything is incomplete, it would be the elusive platypus which tested our patience. It never showed up and surfaced to greet us who had come from afar!
