Hi,
Are there any detailed trek notes to gooches crater available? And can I combine this with a hike to wollangambe crater?
Cheers,
Eline

It's a sensitive area so detailed track notes aren't appropriate. If you look at the topo map, you can see a fire trail from the north that will get you within 500m of Goochs Crater.
If you are prepared to navigate, you can also get to Wollangambe Crater.

We did find it eventually with help of google maps satellite view, topo map and compass.
Indeed track notes lead us to the wrong place at first but that was still while driving to the start of the walk.
We had to park the car about 5 km from the crater. We camped on top on the rocks, beautiful view of the rising big full moon last saturday. And there was a little shelter to cook.
Next morning we finally found the cave, bit hard to access so camping on top was definitely the way to go.
Great place to explore!
Next time we will try to find Wollangambe crater.
