Albert River Circuit (Lamington National Park) |

A beautiful circuit, narrow in places but the main challenge is the length. Stopped for lunch at Echo Point, very impressive views. Still two trees down on the trail, one of which is large and at an awkward angle. |

No heavy rain in a while so conditions ideal. A fairly difficult hike, but if you have moderately good balance and fitness you should be able to complete it (some in our group were inexperienced hikers). We all kept our feet dry there and back, and managed to avoid any particularly nasty stinging plants. Approx. 5hrs in including a lengthy stop at the pool, but we got out in just over 3hrs. Take the time to visit the pool, it's well worth the extra 1.6km! |

Did this from the Joyner's Ridge side with two mates. Campsite at England Creek was well outfitted with log seats. The walk in was relatively easy but hiking out was steep and tough. We stopped at Northbrook Mountain Campsite for lunch. Walk up to the Northbrook lookout is steep and a bit sketchy with heavy packs. All around a good experience. We built a dam across the causeway at the creek, would be curious to see if it sticks around. | ||||

Great walk! Everyone should do this one. Not too steep, but you'll want shoes with good grip as it is a bit muddy and slick in places. We did it in less than 5 hours, including 20 minutes of breaks. It's worth tacking the treetop walk on as well, while you're here. | ||||

Plenty of pink tape and rock cairns to let you know if you are on the right trail. GPS navigation is useful but not essential. We did it in two hours fifteen minutes including all stops. A good challenge and interesting destination. | ||||
