Blackmore StationThe rock at Welcome Rock did not welcome Tom O'Brien. A five-pound pick became his tool of choice, others pitched in to help, and two-and-a-half years later, the Welcome Rock trail was born. Apparently, a bottle of whisky was always hidden at Welcome Rock to revive travellers in need of warmth at this exposed spot. Welcome Rock Mud Hut is the last intact mud hut of its kind that it’s possible to stay in. (The other hut, Slate Hut, is just past the high point of Welcome Rock, and also sleeps four.)
