Typical aussie eucalypt bush. Cockatoos and roos find a home here. A network of loops to choose from, many have a few steep sections. Good prep for the next summit climb. The centre road is some 20km return from end to end. Take a picture of the map when entering the trail area. Straightforward numbering system of each intersection. | ||||

A picturesque walk that ticks many boxes. We liked the extensive piccabeen grove, fruiting black beans and a few interesting buttressed trees and strangler figs. Walked it shortly after good rain-an added bonus. Access from Curtis Rd is a bit longer but more scenic in my view. | ||||

A sudden surprise as I was leaving the Bunya Mountains. No indicator along the road, just a parking spot with a clean toilet. Tucked away the trail and an info sign. Bunya pines and king parrots along the walk. Well maintained and a picnic table for those with more time. A real hidden (not advertised) gem. | ||||
