Recent tour of the three high points around Salvage using both official and very unofficial trails to Cow Head, Gerald’s Hill and Southern Head.

Thanks to those who have taken the time to mark, cut and even place ropes!

This loop was 13km with almost 500m in elevation and significant travel off trail or on unofficial trail as well as the Damnable Trail network.

Here's a map of the most popular trail system in Salvage. It is a mostly coastal walk with striking views. The trail is suitable for hikers and families.

Trail Head: After turning right at the entrance to the community, the trail head is located at the end of the main road. Park at the fish plant and proceed up the paved hill and past the blue house and onto the trail. Families can enjoy a leisurely stroll around Doctor's Pond and up to Net Point, returning via the reverse route, or via the cemetery. Hikers have the option of adding on the easy stroll to Old Harry Lookout, or the climb to Southern Head. Round Head Lookout and Southern Head Pond can also be accessed. Total elevation gain for the full trail is 347m with the majority being in the Southern Head section.
