Whitsunday Peak

Description

The Whitsunday Peak track is located on Whitsunday Island, within Whitsunday Islands National Park. Dotting the scenic aquamarine waters, these hilly islands were formed when changing sea levels drowned a mainland mountain range. The Whitsunday reefs have outstanding coral cover and variety. Whitsunday Island supports a population of unadorned rock-wallabies. From May to September the Whitsundays are an important calving ground for migrating humpback whales.

Accessed from Sawmill Beach in Cid Harbour, the five kilometre return Whitsunday Peak track offers a great getaway from the busy beaches. Climb through diverse vegetation, from rainforest gullies to windblown heaths, and be rewarded with spectacular vistas on the 'roof of the Whitsundays'. Walk safely: this track is steep and physically demanding-please consider your fitness and walking experience carefully before setting out. Allow four hours to complete this track of a difficult grade.
