Only a sunken church remains. To get to the riverbed you can try and drive through the aboriginal cultural village here: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/maps\/place\/22%C2%B042'25.2%22N+120%C2%B039'09.2%22E\/@22.7070079,120.6503573,1108m\/data=!3m2!1e3!4b1!4m5!3m4!1s0x0:0x0!8m2!3d22.707003!4d120.652546\">22.707003,120.652546<\/a> You&#8217;ll have to talk your way past the guard though. If that doesn&#8217;t work, or you&#8217;d like to have more of an adventure, it looks like you can enter here: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/maps\/place\/22%C2%B042'40.8%22N+120%C2%B038'35.0%22E\/@22.7113479,120.6408623,1108m\/data=!3m2!1e3!4b1!4m5!3m4!1s0x0:0x0!8m2!3d22.711343!4d120.643051\">22.711343,120.643051<\/a> There appear to be a few places you can access the riverbed from there.<\/p>\n<p>There will be a few river crossings before reaching the church. The first one is the toughest, though not so bad. Here: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/maps\/place\/22%C2%B042'21.7%22N+120%C2%B040'29.2%22E\/@22.7060415,120.6725797,1108m\/data=!3m2!1e3!4b1!4m5!3m4!1s0x0:0x0!8m2!3d22.7060366!4d120.6747684\">22.7060366,120.6747684<\/a> The water was flowing pretty quick, despite the drought at the time. For the most part it didn&#8217;t go past the top of my boot, but towards the end I needed to stabilize myself and the water went over my boot.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-6798\" src=\"http:\/\/outrecording.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/2015-01-23-12.40.18-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1080\" height=\"810\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.outrecording.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/2015-01-23-12.40.18-1.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/www.outrecording.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/2015-01-23-12.40.18-1-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.outrecording.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/2015-01-23-12.40.18-1-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.outrecording.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/2015-01-23-12.40.18-1-1024x768.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1080px) 100vw, 1080px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The church is located here: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/maps\/place\/22%C2%B041'24.8%22N+120%C2%B042'35.5%22E\/@22.690232,120.7076746,1108m\/data=!3m2!1e3!4b1!4m5!3m4!1s0x0:0x0!8m2!3d22.6902271!4d120.7098633\">22.6902271,120.7098633<\/a> You can clearly see it in satellite view as of January 2015.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Ride Start:<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/maps\/place\/22%C2%B042'47.7%22N+120%C2%B039'37.0%22E\/@22.7132557,120.6580927,1108m\/data=!3m2!1e3!4b1!4m5!3m4!1s0x0:0x0!8m2!3d22.7132508!4d120.6602814\">22.7132507879287, 120.66028137691319<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Date:<\/h3>\n<p>2015 Jan 22<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Notes<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>If you try and get in through the aboriginal cultural village you&#8217;ll need to pay a parking fee to get in.
