Hiking Itinerary

Day One: Unicorn Falls to Camp One (9.6km)

Starting
with a side track to Unicorn Falls, hikers will explore the area’s
distinct dry sclerophyll forest, keeping an eye out for native birds as
they continue along the old Whiskey Creek logging trail. This route
transitions into a lush wet sclerophyll forest and a touch of rainforest
before reaching the awe-inspiring Hell’s Hole, for an optional swim.
The day’s journey concludes at Camp One, where hikers are greeted with
their full glamping set up, hot showers and a warm dinner.

‍Day Two: Camp One to Camp Two (18km)

This
challenging 18km hike ascends 600m into ancient blackbutt and
subtropical rainforests. Hikers take breaks at two stunning lookouts,
each offering breathtaking views of Wollumbin, Commissioners Creek, and
beyond. Crossing the Doon Doon saddle, guests traverse the borders
between Mount Jerusalem National Park and Nightcap National Park. After a
panoramic view from Tea Tree Lookout, the group continues up the
historic Nightcap Bluff to Camp Two. Where luxury awaits the day’s end.

‍Day Three: Camp Two to Weeun Weeun Camp (11.4km)

After
the previous day’s challenging hike, Day 3 is a gentler, scenic descent
through wet and dry sclerophyll forests. Following the ridgeline and
taking in views of Goonengerry National Park and Coopers Creek, hikers
reach the peaceful Weeun Weeun Camp, located near the Wanganui Gorge.

‍Day Four Weeun Weeun Camp to Minyon Grass (12km)

The
final stretch of the journey winds through diverse landscapes,
including scenic creek crossings and the tranquil Boggy Creek Walk,
before continuing toward Minyon. The trail meanders through lush lowland
subtropical rainforest, leading to the awe-inspiring Valley of the
Giants, where towering brush box, blackbutt, and strangler figs create a
mystical atmosphere. Here, guests can take a refreshing swim and enjoy
lunch at the base of Minyon Falls. The hike concludes around 3 PM with a
climb to Minyon Grass, where transport will be waiting to return guests
to their accommodations.

up whenever you like and step out of your tent to the sounds of
birdsong as the bush comes to life. Breathe in the fresh morning air,
sip on a freshly brewed coffee or a quiet cup of tea, and ease into the
day. Stretch out any sore hiking muscles before enjoying a delicious,
nourishing breakfast. Take a refreshing morning shower—or opt for an
evening shower the night before—and get ready for the day’s adventure.
No need to pack up; our logistics crew will take care of dismantling the
camp while you set off on your hike.

from your hike to a fully set-up camp, glowing with lantern light as
the sun begins to set. Have a nice hot shower. Kick back and relax with a
well-earned Stone & Wood beer or a glass of locally made Jilly
wine. A beautifully arranged grazing platter will be served, offering
the perfect way to unwind before dinner. Gather around our custom-made
Blackbutt dining table to enjoy a nourishing, chef-curated meal under
the stars, crafted with fresh, local ingredients. As the night sky fills
with stars, take in the breathtaking view, share stories around the
gathering circle, or retreat early for a well-deserved rest.Your tent is
