Walk/trail run suggestions for this weekend

Hi all
Given the multiple park closures at the moment due to fire, flood etc, just looking for some suggestions from the collective brains trust for a 1 day trail run/bush walk (happy to do trips that are considered big days or 2 days). Ideally within a couple of hours drive of either Sydney or Katoomba. I’ve done a fair bit in Kuringai, Brisbane waters, Bouddi, blueys, & Royal NP, (though there’s always more). Had thought about Wolgan Valley/Newnes, Bungonia, Kanangra Boyd, but all seem closed, in the blueys not too many longer walks seem open. Happy for some off-track sections or else a tracked the entire way.
Any thoughts?

you should be able to do the 6 foot track from explorers tree down to Cox's river and back from this coming weekend (at least according to last message on http://sixfoottrackecolodge.com/ )

also as far as I can tell, the Victory Track (faulconbridge to springwood) is open, could be impacted by high water though. You can make a longer trip by extending to Blaxland http://www.wildwalks.com/bushwalking-an ... xland.html

Thanks for the suggestions guys - I ended up back in Royal NP, but have added a few things to my list of ‘to do’s’ based on the above. Cheers
