Melaleuca Circuit
A nice walk, just 45 minutes drive from Bundaberg. Walk through the trees to come out to a beautiful mangrove and continue on to an 4WD/walk in only camp-site. A short sandy section along the beach, leads you back to the start of the circuit. Official signage says 12km return, but my GPS only measured around 11km.

Russells Rest Track
Reward yourself with a picnic and endless ocean and estuary views at the end of this pretty walk.
After you’ve set up camp in the Burrum Point camping area, pack a picnic and meander through cypress pine and tea-trees to a small rest area on the beach. Soak up endless views of the ocean and the Burrum and Gregory river mouths.
Unwind to the sound of the wind in the trees and watch brahminy kites circle overhead. Look for shorebirds—resting here during long migratory flights. If you visiting during winter, keep your eyes glued to the horizon, you might be lucky enough to see whales breaching and playing in the offshore waters of the Great Sandy Marine Park.

Castle Mountain Lookout
This walk start from the main car park. Head off toward the Gorge lookout then it continues on from there to a fire trail that runs up the eastern side of the range. Fairly easy going and slowly works uphill with a steeper section at the end to get the heart pumping. Along the fire trail there are the odd resting chair and glimpse of views off to the east. Take plenty of water as there is no water anywhere on the trail or lookout. The maps at the start said 22km return but I had 24km on my return.
