Walked the Buaraba Creek track and both circuits today. It was already quite hot at 10am when we started our trip back up the hill so glad we didn’t leave it until later in the year. Very little water in the creek just a trickle but nice day.

Completed this one with the Buaraba Creek Trail, Sandstone Overhang & Rainforest Circuits. Ended up being 8.5km in total. A lovely place to hike & a good track.

Easy walk through the nice cool rainforest on a hot summer day. Combined this walk with the Rainforest circuit and Buaraba Creek walk to make one big circuit.

If travelling from Brisbane and using GPS, beware that Seventeen Mile Rd is unsealed and only suitable for 4WD (lots of corrugation and pot holes) best to go via Esk.

Combine this walk with the other walks in the park for a very enjoyable time. A huge variety of plants, trees and a few animals around.
