Cronan Creek Falls Track (Mt Barney National Park) |
14 Jul, 2024 |
Medium |
13km 5 hrs |

Beautiful spot at the falls, camped by the creek (Forestry is my preference) for a chilly night, undulating walk along management trail seeing many people coming down from the Mt Barney South ridge walk – some well after dark. | ||||

Public holiday business at the carpark and a few people on the track but a good day for it. | ||||

Walk back from the lookout seemed so much quicker than the walk out but they are not very different distances. Was a pleasant enough walk. |

Fantastic walk. Took it over 5 days taking a rest day at Zoe Bay. Plenty of water around, so many creek crossings. Big tides meant being careful with depart times to cross some creeks and even to have some beach to walk on. The rock scrambles and some creek crossings were slow carrying a pack. | ||||

Suprisingly quiet (most people seem to only go as far as the swimming area), some beautiful spots along the way. | ||||
Jindalba Boardwalk (Daintree National Park) |

The long walk (2.7km) from here is a beauty and less popular. Lots of evidence of cassowary but I didn't see one until driving on the road back out. | ||||

Northbrook Mtn bush camp walk (D'Aguilar National Park) |

Excellent overnighter. Late afternoon walk in. Long steady decline followed by not quite as long incline, not uncomfortable in the cool air. Very pleasant campsite, lots of birds in the morning. Walk back up was more taxing in the warmth of the day - I wouldn't be very keen to do it mid-summer with a pack. | ||||
Toolona Creek Circuit (Lamington National Park) |
28 Jul, 2020 |
Medium |
19.8km return 7 hrs |

Stunning! After some heavy rains in the week before the waterfalls were glorious and the multiple creek crossings a little challenging and the track was muddy but nothing to bad. Did the circuit clockwise. Leaving a bit late at 10:30am, with a stop for lunch and many photo stops, got us back just after 5pm to catch some sunset. Only saw 3 other people all day once past the Picnic Rock track. This is a world class walk! |

Enjoyed this circuit. Heavy rains in previous weeks made for good falls but one quite tricky creek crossing and a bit of muddiness. An Albert's lyrebird happily went about his business just off the path as we watched for a good 5-10 mins. Looking forward to returning. |

Afternoon walk in and out with camping gear as pack training. 2:20 return walk time inc stopping for a peek at the creek and birds - king parrots, finches and numerous unidentified types. Saw one other walker and a couple of mountain bikers (who thought it was fine to toss their fruit peels into the fire pit). Pleasant afternoon! |
