A beautiful and sometime challenging hike with some of the best views of Scotland.
This a a fantastic and varied hike to the summit of Lamb's Head. Walk would range between 4-6hrs depending on fitness levels and stoppages. I recommend taking a few litres of water and some snacks. It is best during the dry winter season. The views at the top are absolutely amazing and there are several viewing points if you follow the 'sometimes hard' to see small pink ribbons. One view faces north/north-east over Cairns and the other is west/north-west. It truely is the one of the best hikes in the region. Afterwards you can find many beautiful rock pools at Davies Creek to swim in.
A pleasant 2.5km walk along a well maintained access track through rainforest and wet eucalypt forest leading to a spacious, well equipped remote campsite. The campsite offers a hut with benches and a picnic table, two large water tanks, and seating around a fire pit. There are sunset views over the range when looking to the west and, to the east, you can enjoy views of the sunrise, Moreton Bay, and Brisbane lights at night. If you’re lucky you will also see the fireflies flitting around the camp.
A short, but pleasant bushwalk in St. Lucia close to UQ.
This lookout is off the Dragon Cave and Bloodwood Cave Walk (Approx 240 meters up from half way along the walk)
Walking - A 1.5 km (1 hour return) marked walking track leads into the gorge. Signs along the track interpret some of the petroglyphs and the rare Acacia undoolyana.
A 10.4km walk along the coast line at Coffin Bay, Ayre Peninsula. It is a good way to explore the township and area. A pleasant, easy walk with some special views around each corner. It can be done in sections and so the length is your own choosing.
A walk to the actual summit of Mt Barney (West Peak is higher than East Peak). It's got views, not as crowded as East Peak, and quicker to get to from Rum Jungle.
Emily Gap (Anthwerrke) is a registered sacred site. A large rock painting depicts the caterpillar dreaming. Please respect the site and do not touch any Aboriginal art.
These small Gaps in the Heavitree Range are the first features you come to on your trip into the East MacDonnell Ranges. They contain interesting Aboriginal paintings and are important
spiritual sites to the Eastern Arrernte Aboriginal people.
