You need to find Repentance Creek Road which links into the road between Goonengerry and Federal as you can see. Turn into Repentance Creek Road. Repentance Creek road is an excellent tarred road which winds through the beautiful green wooded hills.
You must take the Minyon Falls road turnoff off of Repentance Creek Road when you get to it, which is very well marked. It too is tarred and goes up a fairly steep hill. At this turnoff off of Repentance Creek Road, you will cross or see Upper Coopers Creek and possibly see the Repentance Creek Community Hall (if you look for it). Go straight up the Minyon Falls road for about 3km till you get to the top of the hill.
At the top of the hill the Minyon Falls Road bears sharply to the left up the hill, while Upper Coopers Creek Road forms a continuation of the direction you're travelling. Keep going straight on to Upper Coopers Creek Road which is a good quality dirt road which then winds down into the Upper Coopers Creek Valley. One area looks like a natural Cathedral... very beautiful.
The next point is ealily missed, so take your time here - after about 2km of winding road you'll see a yellow diamond 'Wiggly Road' road sign on your left. Look to the right and you'll see a whole lot of post boxes on the other side of the road and also there you will see the turnoff to Englishs Road.
Go down Englishs Road for about 50 meters and carefully cross the old rickity but solid wooden bridge then immediately take a sharp turn left just after the bridge. You may see the sign 'Jasper Hall' in a tree. Anyway go carefully up the hill for about 1km (the road is narrow but OK for a car) and voila you've arrived at the front gate of Jasper Hall.
