An awesome but seldom visited lookout offering near 360 degree views along the Numinbah Valley.
Araucaria Lookout is named after the hoop pines Araucaria cunninghamii, which can be viewed from the lookout. These hoop pine communities are a living representative of the Jurassic Age (the age of the conifers) of about 180 million years ago.
At 18km return it's a long walk but on graded tracks so there are no navigational issues or bush bashing to worry about. There are a few ups and downs to contend with but nothing really steep or nasty. Allow 5-6 hours at a steady pace including time to enjoy the views.
Park at the end of Binna Burra Rd, BINNA BURRA QLD.
Which maps cover the area?
The walk is fairly well signed. See attached GPS for further guidance.

Navigation to some bushwalks can be difficult. Automated navigation using Google Maps or Apple Maps may not be accurate. Additionally, Aussie Bushwalking doesn't always have accurate positions for where to park for a walk.
Please read the walk description for special directions and take extra care.
