Upper Welby Reservoir offers a peaceful start to the Box Vale Walking Track. Hidden among the bush, the reservoir dates to 1930 and forms part of the Southern Highlands' historic water supply network. From here, the walk soon leaves the water behind as it follows the former tramway through deep sandstone cuttings towards Nattai Gorge.
