Aquila Loop (D'Aguilar National Park)

I just completed this walk. I did it clockwise following the directions on the NPSR website but also going to the viewpoint at Northbrook Bush Camp (short but very steep climb). I camped for the night at England Creek which was very nice, water was flowing and very clear. According to my phone it was 28km total, 47,400 steps, 1144m total climb, 9.63km going uphil, 9.58km going downhill and 8.79km on the flat. 6h19m spent walking total. I took a lot of breaks going uphill the second day was very tiring. I would say my fitness level is low-moderate but someone who was fit could easily do this as a day walk.
Gheerulla Valley Circuit (Mapleton National Park)

Too hard for summer. It was almost 37c by the time we got to the top of the big climb. This is not for beginners. It took us almost 9hrs all up with breaks. 6L water consumed per person. The lower section of the walk between Delicia Rd and the Great walk entrance is beautiful. Maybe consider going clockwise to skip the killer climb part of this walk
