Canberra, Australian Capital Territory 2602

- It remains permanent while walkers tend to its maintenance. It was created initially with branches but, after eighteen months of diligent work, includes rocks and stones which run more or less parallel with the branches. The kangaroos and echidnas disturb their alignment from time to time.
- Directions/notes:
- Five Senses is not easy to find without a guide. Over time, more and more people have walked and maintained the labyrinth. Its walkers and maintainers have either been taken there by others or simply discovered it while walking through the reserve. There are a number of possible tracks to take to get to Five Senses. For those not already familiar with it, the easiest directions are: go to the carpark on the corner of Phillip Avenue and Kellaway Avenue, Hackett. Follow the Old Tip Track (Access Summit), which starts off at the iron barrier gates (the extension of Phillip Avenue). After about 500m (going south) you travel under powerlines and then through a locked gate. Continue up quite steeply another 250m (travelling south-east), then the track flattens out a little, and curves to the south-west around the top of a gully, before turning south-east again. At the bend, look to your right (west) for a grassy clearing, with a faint track in. Five Senses is about 50m in, under a large old eucalypt with a protruding brown growth. Once located, you can explore the other possible tracks to get to Five Senses.
