Starting at Echo Point car park this short return walk in Morton National Park takes you to Mount Carnarvon lookout with great views of the park. This s a great spot for birdwatching. When you return why not have a picnic at Echo Point picnic area. Let us begin by acknowledging the Gundungurra people, Traditional Custodians of the land on which we travel today, and pay our respects to their Elders past and present.
Before you start any bushwalk ensure you;
• Tell someone you trust where you are going and what to do if you are overdue
• Have adequate equipment, supplies, skills & knowledge for the whole journey
• Consider the impact of weather forecasts, park/track closures & fire dangers
• Can respond to emergencies & call for help at any point
