Elevation gain: ~400m
Description:
This activity is in Paluma Range National Park, Mt Spec Region, based on Crystal and Dolby Creeks. Starts and finishes at Paluma Dam.
A full-day bushwalk comprising rough bush tracks, then off-track jungle bashing and rockhopping / scrambling. Route involves trip hazards, loose and slippery surfaces, steep sections, risk of cuts and scratches from jungle vegetation, and exposed ledges. In some areas there will be tangled vines and wait-a-while to enjoy.
Suitable for fit bushwalkers who can maintain a good pace over the full day in remote conditions.
