Starting from the Bald Rock Picnic Area at the end of Bald Rock Access Road, Boonoo Boonoo, this walk takes you to the summit of Bald Rock and back via the Bungoona Walk. This moderately challenging walk climbs gently to the summit of Bald Rock, the largest granite monolith in Australia, located in Bald Rock National Park. Bald Rock's water-streaked dome is about 260m high and rises almost 1300m above sea level, providing spectacular views, especially at sunrise and sunset. The walk initially follows a wide, wheelchair-accessible sealed path, then crosses a footbridge and follows a fire trail, climbing gradually through bushland up the gentler eastern side of Bald Rock. After passing the impressive granite boulder formations known as the 'Granite Titans', the walk joins the Rockface Walk and crosses the saddle to the summit, which offers panoramic views of the surrounding landscape. The Bungoona Walk can be combined with the Rockface Walk to form a loop, which is best done anti-clockwise. This walk consists of wide and narrow walking trails, fire tracks and sealed paths, with uneven natural surfaces, compacted natural surfaces, bitumen surfaces, gravel surfaces, off-track sections, short steep hills and steps. Suitable for average fitness levels. Let us begin by acknowledging the Jukembal people, Traditional Custodians of the land on which we travel today, and pay our respects to their Elders past and present.
