CENTRAL COAST - Kincumba Mountain - Warriwarri Lookout - HIKE - 17 September 2008


Getting there

Drive by car to Kincumber Mountain reserve. Turn right just before the shopping centre at Kincumber at . Next, turn right at the first roundabout at Kincumber Street. Follow this street until the end. It joins onto a road leading up to the picnic area at Kincumber Mountain.

The picnic area has a mud house and toilets, parking and a ranger station at the northern end. The area is wide and there are tables and benches available. It is a nice place to rest or have a bit of fun while overlooking the view of Brisbane Water.

Warriwarri Lookout

The start of the Warriwarri Lookout track and the Sid Pulsford walk starts just a little to the west of the northern car park. The trail is wide with a variety of vegetation lining the edges of the walk. There are a number of large trees with a dry flora at ground level.

After a short distance, the trail spits into two directions (Warriwarri lookout and Sid Pulsford Walk). Continue along the trail until a sign indicates Warriwarri Lookout. There is a bench seat which overlooks the lookout. The lookout is a series of descending sandstone boulders. The view affords glimpses of Bensville and the surrounding areas through the trees. At this point, there are tracks that lead to urbanised areas.
When leaving the lookout there is a narrow track to the left. This track skirts the cliff and gives various northern views through the trees before turning inwards and back to the Lookout trail. Retrace your steps back to the car park.
