Itinerary description
First section of the Sunshine Coast Great Walk, this 16km track starts at the Baroon Pocket Dam and passes through open woodland ridges. It crosses bridges and boardwalks over palm-lined streams. Narrows lookout provides a splendid view into the Obi Obi Gorge. Baroon lookout (2.2km along) offers views of Obi Obi Gorge, Baroon Pocket Dam and its catchment. Either return or continue along past Flat Rock and come out at Kondalilla Falls. The falls have a 60m drop which is often just a trickle but very beautiful after some decent rain. From here, follow the track upward to the Rock Pool for a refreshing swim then a further 1km to the Kondalilla car park area. If you are camping follow the signs which will take you along the road side around to Flaxton Mill Rd and eventually to the Flaxton Walkers Camp.
