Starting from the car park at the end of Point Lookout Road, Ebor, this walk takes you on a circuit around Point Lookout via the Point Lookout Walking Track. This short and easy walk winds its way around Point Lookout, located about 1500m above sea level on the edge of the Great Escarpment in New England National Park, offering panoramic views across the park's World Heritage-listed wilderness and beyond to the ocean. The surrounding bushland is dominated by snow gums, and during late spring and early summer, the bright red flowers of the flame trees can be spotted in the rainforest valleys below. The area is also home to diverse birdlife and wildlife, including superb lyrebirds, reptiles, wallabies and a wide variety of parrots. At both lookouts, visitors are rewarded with spectacular views across the Gondwana rainforest, and on a clear day, towards the Pacific Ocean on the Coffs Coast. The initial section of the loop, leading to the first lookout, is wheelchair accessible. There are toilets, picnic tables and a large picnic shelter near the car park. This loop consists of wide and narrow, mostly flat walking trails, with sealed surfaces and uneven natural surfaces, suitable for all ages and fitness levels, as well as prams and wheelchairs. 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.
