Piper Comanche Wreck (D'Aguilar National Park) |

Nice peaceful walk in the rainforest. Very cold first thing in the morning during winter. I completed the hike return in 3hrs, thats including time checking out the air crash/resting. Track is marked, I know a lot of people have said it’s easy to get lost but if you follow the path and marks along the way you’ll be fine. I also wouldn’t recommend sitting down on the rocks for a rest near the crash… the area is infested with leaches. Wear insect repellent and appropriate clothing. |

Challenging but very rewarding incline with some rock scrambling. I went at 7am on a Sunday first to arrive. Carpark has enough room for about 4cars. I had the privilege of the local red dog from the house across the road guide me all the way to the summit and back down again. He’s very friendly just wants someone to walk with him. There’s ropes at numerous locations along the climb to help with the steep muddy areas. Overall one of my favourite hikes. Peaceful with amazing views along the way and at the top. If you do go with red dog he’ll want to take you to the 2nd summit. It goes downhill to get there. |
