    This is one of the best spots I've found whilst exploring Main Range. The ridge line would make a spectacular campsite, offering sunrise views to the East, and views of the falls which would be lit up in the morning sun....

    Mount Mistake to Castle View Walkers Camp. The best part of this walk is camping on the ridge !! Other than that, just your average undulating fire trail hike. The change from bush land to rainforest is quite nice and s...

    At the start of the trail you pass Mt Castle Lookout and Sylvester’s lookouts. Would have been beautiful if there wasn’t a complete cloud white out ! Oh well. The hike itself is a little more challenging today with the g...
