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.

A nice walk, nothing too strenuous except some stairs that get the heart going. Interesting to see the mountain from different angles.
Border Track (Lamington National Park)

Stayed at O'Reilly's and got a transfer over to Binna Burra to start the walk. Weather wasn't on our side though - it rained the whole time and cloud obscured every view :( The track was very muddy and slippery and I ended up damaging my knee. I think that because my boots had ankle protection I couldn't flex there so my knee ended up taking the twist if I slipped in the mud. The ligaments took a while to mend and subsequent hikes would see me limping on that leg. I now use hiking poles and lower rise trail runners, and with leg strengthening exercises I now have no problems with it :) Back to the track: enjoyed the lush rainforest and must be a great walk in fine weather when you can see the coastal views. Allow plenty of time, and pack a headtorch just incase - we came back in the dark.

Amazing views and landscape. Got out to Castle Crag, steep cliff sides though - I wouldn't do it with kids.
