A must for adventurous bushwalkers, Bluff Mountain walking track follows the same route as Breadknife and Grand High Tops walk but this hike takes you to the top of Bluff Mountain. It offers unrivalled views of the Warrumbungles’ ancient volcanic landscape as you climb from remnant ancient rainforest to windswept mountain heath.
From Coonabarabran travel along Timor Road that becomes John Renshaw Parkway once you enter the National Park. Continue along John Renshaw Parkway and just past the Visitor Centre turn left down Pincham Road to the car park and camping area.
From Tooraweenah, follow John Renshaw Parkway for approximately 35km and just before the Visitor Centre turn right down Pincham Road to the car park and camping area.
