Lower Bellbird Circuit

Lamington National Park

This circuit branches off ship's stern 3.7 km from the trail head. It passes through a variety of habitat types and there are some impressive views. You can start from either just south of the information center (500 m) and walk clockwise or start at Binna Burra and walk anticlockwise. Either way, you'll be walking down or up 2.5km of road. A nice 3 km diversion is to go down to Lower Ballunjul Falls.

Navigation is easy. Where the Bellbird Walk joins the Ships Stern walk there is the option of taking the 1.5km (each way) diversion to Ballanjui Falls.

Very scenic walk with lots of lookouts. Recommended to be done with caves circuit. The entrance is down the hill from the information centre near the truck down gear signs. I went the caves first as I didn't think the entrance would be that far down

We walked the track starting at the bottom end near the information centre and returned via the Caves track, with a stop off for lunch at the cafe. It made for a great day. We saw some wallabies on the grassy section of track early in the walk as well as a Noisy Pita. Surprisingly humid for this time of the year.

A good walk especially when you add Caves Circuit onto it at the end,which saves walking back up the road to the lodge(or what use to be the Lodge)
