Reviews
"Walked up the goat track. Interesting, heaps of stairs. Experienced walkers probably preferred. Otherwise the drive up to some amazing views over Townsville out to Magnetic Island. Well worth the walk/drive."
"Great views from the top! Went at 7am before it got too hot and was the perfect time to do it. Plenty of others also doing the hike/walk up all those stairs. A very good (sweaty) exercise and great way to cleanse the body of the night before. I was surprised how friendly everyone was, everyone says hello to each other which is great. Very different to melbourne. Took me 1 hour 15min from town to hike up and down and was 6km exactly"
"Gorgeous views from any of the lookout spots around the crest. Drive up was longer than I initially thought but the road was wide enough that it was never an issue. Only problem was everyone walking up the roads, waiting for incoming traffic to pass so I could drive around then was slightly annoying."
"Beautiful walk with the road for less mobile walkers. A few different routes up and down. I had a great time doing the walk for sunset and than walking down in twilight."
"Great place to walk. I would recommend walking up the staircase and going down the roadside. There is limited parking so head there early in the morning. Beautiful view once your at the top, there are toilets at the top with a water fountain and tracks that lead to other view points."
