Easy track
Starting from the Crest Carpark on Cunningham Highway(National Highway 15), Tregony, this walk takes you on a small circuit in the rainforest of Main Range National Park. Expect a gorgeous setting and environment that provides you heaps of shade under the canopy. The track is undemanding, well-maintained and uncomplicated. You can also extend this walk and do the Palm Grove Circuit or the Mount Cordeaux(and Bare Rock) tracks, but those may not be as well-maintained. Keep in mind that domestic pets are not allowed in Main Range National Park. Let us begin by acknowledging the Traditional Custodians of the land on which we travel today, and pay our respects to their Elders past and present.
