Itinerary description

My first hike/visit to this circuit. Done in a clockwise direction.

Great water flow (a few leeches - not bad) made for an awesome large number of Creek, River crossings together with many smaller gullies with water flowing on the day.

Expect to get your feet wet as I found it impossible to rock hop every creek/river.

Saw lots of Blue Crayfish. Finished the circuit with a visit to the tourist Treetop walk.

    First time to Lamington NP. Walked the Toolona Creek Circuit. What a gem of a walk. I think I missed Elabana Falls. 17.8k all up in 4hrs 34mins with stops for video & photos. I pushed the pace as wanted to get back to Brisbane before peak hour traffic. 5 degrees at the start with a nice breeze. No leeches :) I had the circuit to myself until about 7k to go. Came across a black dingo just after Toolona Falls. Just staring at me from the above single track. youtube video to share. Not a fan of the long windy road but look forward to head back to explore some more.
