This a a fantastic and varied hike to the summit of Lamb's Head. Walk would range between 4-6hrs depending on fitness levels and stoppages. I recommend taking a few litres of water and some snacks. It is best during the dry winter season. The views at the top are absolutely amazing and there are several viewing points if you follow the 'sometimes hard' to see small pink ribbons. One view faces north/north-east over Cairns and the other is west/north-west. It truely is the one of the best hikes in the region. Afterwards you can find many beautiful rock pools at Davies Creek to swim in.
How do you get to the start of the walk?
From Cairns drive trough Kuranda as if to go to Mareeba but turn in to Davis Creek Rd (Davie Creek National Park). Follow the road, which turns to dirt, along unitl you pass the Davies Creek lower camp sites and waterfall. You will also pass the upper creek campsites of 3-4 and then find the sign on your left for the start of the walk.
