Starting from Lamington National Park Road, O’Reilly, this circuit walk takes you deep into the lush rainforests of Lamington park, navigating partly along Albert River and visiting multiple waterfalls and lookouts. Expect to be amazed by the stunning view of the waterfalls and the interchanging vegetation throughout the track. Although the track is roughly 20 kilometres long, it may not feel like it as the tracks are gentle and undulating. When you’re near water, keep an eye out for the native Lamington crayfish, also known as the blue spiny crayfish due to its vibrant blue coloured shell. Other wildlife you can run into in the area are king parrots and dingoes. You’ll be going through some ancient Antarctic Beech trees along with other interesting rainforest plant species. The Echo Point camp site midway is meters away from the same-titled lookout, where you can get exceptional panoramic views to the south. During the day, you’ll be able to see many mountains and hills including Mount Warning, whereas the night offers you an exceptional opportunity for stargazing. Decent(preferably waterproof) hiking boots and gaiters are recommended against the muddy and leechy conditions. Keep an eye out for snakes. 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.

Starting from the Pincham car park at the end of Pincham Road, Warrumbungle National Park, this walk takes you on a circuit through the Warrumbungle Range via the Warrumbungles Circuit. This challenging full-day/multi-day hike winds its way through the Warrumbungle Range, taking in dramatic rocky landscapes formed from ancient volcanic remains, with side trips to various peaks and attractions, as well as several overnight camping options. The walk initially follows a combination of paved paths and well-maintained walking tracks alongside Spirey Creek, crossing several footbridges, with optional side trips to the Fan's Horizon Lookout, along the Goulds Circuit and to the Spirey View Lookout. Once the paved path ends, the walk begins climbing a series of steps, passing the iconic Breadknife formation before reaching Lugh's Throne, the highest point of the Grand High Tops. After descending to Dagda Saddle, the walk heads to Dows Camp, passing a side trip to Bluff Mountain, then continues past Point Wilderness to Ogma Camp. Further ahead, the walk passes a side trip to the Cathedral Arch on the way to Danu Camp, where there's a side trip to Mount Exmouth. From there, the walk follows the Burbie Trail to Camp Burbie, then continues alongside Burbie Creek before heading through Burbie Gap, passing the turnoffs for Burbie Canyon and the Belougery Split Rock Circuit. After reaching the Split Rock car park, walkers can either head past Canyon Camp and the Warrumbungle Visitor Centre or follow the main road back to the Pincham car park. This walk consists of wide and narrow walking trails, fire tracks, paved paths and sealed roads, with uneven natural surfaces, compacted natural surfaces, sealed surfaces, rocky sections, steep hills and steps. Suitable for moderate fitness levels. Let us begin by acknowledging the Gamilaraay, Wiradjuri and Weilwan people, Traditional Custodians of the land on which we travel today, and pay our respects to their Elders past and present.
