Easy walk to see the beautiful view

Lovely easy short walk completed in about 40 mins with time to enjoy the view at the top.

Last walk of the day having covered over 20km on five walks today starting at 8am. No wonder I am feeling tired and looking forward to a well deserved drink and a hot meal. Interesting to hear the dingos howling somewhere on the mountains in the late afternoon.

Looking dry but nice views on the walk and at the lookout. Saw eagles cruising the thermals. Watch out for ticks - we found a couple on us when we returned to the campsite.

We parked the car at Burtons Well and started with Mt Kiangarow first (this only adds 2.2km) on our Cherry Plain circuit. Mt Kiangarow was terrific and we were able to see birds and wallabies on the track. Some really great views while walking up and when we got to the top. We then walked to Cherry Plain via Ghinghion Lookout, Bottle Tree Bluff and Cherry Plain Lookout. All up, an 11km walk in 3 & a bit hours.

Osprey soaring around the lookout in the evening sun.

Beautiful view from the top.

It was freezing the day we went to the Bunya Mountains, but so beautiful. If it's a cold day, be sure to rug up because it's even colder up there. A very easy walk in and out.

Great view from the summit

Nice short 2.2km walk. A steady slope upwards which meant the way back was all downhill. Not too hard an upward slope though. Lookout was great over the tops of the grass trees to a great vast area, well worth the walk.

Easy walk with a fantastic view from the lookout. Loved the grass trees across the top.

Started in the dark , very easy walk and quite easy to do with a headlamp is you wish to beat the sunrise

Not too steep and it actually flattens out for the last bit at the top. Stunning views!
Steve F on 12 Nov, 2016

Caught a beautiful sunset here and walked back down with a good head torch, checking out the wildlife. Very nice, especially when the wind is gentle.

A mystical magic short walk. Beautiful!
Raffaela on 13 Aug, 2016

We enjoyed the walk, but beware of ticks. None actually attached, but three climbed up on us while at the lookout.
Ian and Sue on 21 Oct, 2015

Beautiful walk was heavy mist on the way up but cleared enough to reveal beautiful views from the top of the walk. And remained sunny on the way back it was the best of both. Very easy walk with great views.
