This relatively short loop walk in the Gardens of Stone explores the Dicksonia Forest Ravine, an amazing rainforest gully of ancient tree ferns. The exit route along the ridge offers extensive views over the Dingo Creek area.
A loop bushwalk to Big Jims Point in Popran National Park, which offers some nice views over the Hawkesbury River. The walk is mostly on firetrails, but you can add a more challenging side-trip to the Berowra Trig.
An off-track bushwalk from the Great North Walk to the top of Mount Kariong, which is (arguably) the equal tallest peak in Brisbane Water National Park.
This version of the Ferris Cave Circuit at Mount Victoria passes the picturesque Ferris Cave, as well as Boronia Point and Hourn Point lookouts and Witches Glen Falls. Combine with the nearby Coxs Cave Circuit for a longer loop hike.
The main feature of the Coxs Cave Circuit is an enormous cave, which is reached by a 20m steel ladder. An optional side-trip goes to Dunns Leap, where a school boy miraculously survived a fall down the cliffs.
Considered one of the “must do” bushwalks at Arkaroola, the Acacia Ridge walk offers magnificent 360-degree views from the top of the ridge. It’s best done as an early morning or late afternoon bushwalk.
The Oppaminda Nudlamutana bushwalk in the northern Flinders Ranges connects the Oodnaminta Track and Oppaminda Trail. The route passes through the Gammon Ranges and traverses Mount Warren Hastings, which offers spectacular views. A twist on the standard route takes an off-track detour over an additional peak.
A short but steep trail up Griselda Hill (just above Arkaroola Village) offers stunning 360-degree views. The very last part of the trail involves a scramble to the rocky summit.
Mount Ohlssen Bagge is one of three peaks in the Wilpena Pound Range that has a trail to the top. The relatively short but steep walk offers spectacular, 360-degree views from the summit.
The bushwalk to Rawnsley Bluff in the Flinders Ranges offers a number of impressive lookout points, featuring views of the Elder and Chace Ranges. It’s a relatively easy walk with one short but steep section.
