Itinerary description
Start from the information centre located before Bina Burra lodge and take the track to Gwongoorool pool and from there rock hop all the way to Coomera Falls. The return was done by following the Mystery Track located roughly 1 Km before reaching Coomera Falls. A cairn will indicate the start of the track. The track is steep and a couple of spots involve a scramble with exposure.

Hi Gerard,
Wondering if you wouldn't mind taking this hike off the public Wikiloc access ? The Senior Ranger is going to close it down, again, and mark it as such. Here is some of his message below:
"The Mystery Track at Binna Burra which was officially closed in the eighties is the latest hotspot being promoted on social media and through walking groups such as Meet Up. A section of the old route was impacted by landslide several years ago and a new route to avoid this area has developed in very steep area and the resultant erosion is negatively impacting the key values of this world heritage listed park. A number of unauthorised ropes have been installed to assist people climb up and down the steep sections in places which is against QPWS policies and poses a potential safety risk for users and QPWS."
I'm also advising the other 4 Wikiloc users so that we assist the Rangers in their already heavy workload.
Cheers
Chris
I'm thinking of doing this walk but returning the same way, since the mystery track has been closed. What was your time to the gorge ??
9:45 min all up. The mystery track is a shorter way of finishing the whole thing. I suppose coming back the way you came is a lot longer so it will be another 2-3 h on top. But this is only a rough guess.
