 The first wound through wonderful dense forest where Indian Rubber trees towered above us and White-breasted Sea-eagles soared on the thermals below. The second trail followed a deserted ridgeline where we only saw one other soul in our three-hour walk. The views to the west were of a lovely deep water bay where pleasure yachts were moored, while to the east is a beach resort and a popular surfing break. Stumped?
