Starting from the Carnarvon Gorge Visitor Centre, Carnarvon Park, this return walk takes you to the uniquely beautiful Moss Garden via the Big Bend and Moss Garden Walk tracks, exploring the gorge along the way. Feel the change in temperature as you take the last turn and head into the Moss Garden. Expect an incredibly peaceful and stunning scenery, along with a little waterfall to add to the serenity of the place. The sandstone walls are covered in luminous moss, liverworts and ferns. Remember to stop and take some time to appreciate the beauty of the environment. Although it is considerably cooler than the main gorge track, try to avoid midday hikes under the blistering sun. Also, bring some insect repellent to protect yourself from the mozzies(Australian slang for mosquitoes). Expect to get wet feet as the track features multiple creek crossings. Let us begin by acknowledging the Bidjara & Karingbal people, Traditional Custodians of the land on which we travel today, and pay our respects to their Elders past and present.
