Mount Larcom Walk (Central Queensland) |

This climb was quite difficult - very steep, lots of loose rock on the ground, and a great rock scramble towards the end. Amazing 360 views from the top which makes for some great photos! Bring lots of water, even in the winter. The climb took us 1h 40min, descent took 40min. | ||||

Hiked in Winter (started 4:15am, reached top ~30mins before sunrise). It was pretty cold - I wore 2-3 layers most of the way up and definitely was chilly sitting on the summit for ~45mins. Had been raining the last few days so a lot of the trail was waterlogged and slippery. Having done this hike before with handheld torches, I recommend getting a head torch if you are planning to hike for sunrise to keep your hands free, especially for the final rock scramble to the top. If you're stopping for a rest, turn your torch off and see if you can spot some glow worms! I have seen them both times I have climbed, and they glow like bright blue stars in the rocks. | ||||

Nice easy walk, close enough to main roads but feels like you're a lot further away by how quiet and peaceful it is. | ||||

Really beautiful rainforest walk and easy to navigate. There are some pretty breathtaking views around the middle of the walk where you can see right through the valley. The caves were fun too. :) | ||||

Long, hard walk. Definitely recommend leaving early (I started 7am, finished back at the rec area car park 11am on the dot) as it was getting quite hot by the last leg of the trail. Agree with some other users: this walk made a great training hike to prep for other longer hikes and it's not very scenic. Gorgeous wildlife though - I came fairly close to a few huge lace monitors along the way. | ||||
