Footprints On Fraser
Fraser Island

Four Day Great Lakes Walk

The four day walk, an easy-to-medium walking challenge that will suit a broad range of walkers, visits four of the most beautiful lakes on Fraser Island, two of which you will camp at.

Visit the remarkable lakes, have the opportunity to swim all year round, and visit the rainforests of Central Station, Wanggoolba Creek and Pile Valley. The new campsite there is a treasure for walkers and is set amongst the rainforest giants, vines and palms. Tramp through banksia woodland, tall open forest, melaleuca wetlands, the ancient dunes of the central highlands and the developing dunes of the east coast.

Five Day Forest Giants Walk

The Five Day Forest Giants Walk visits the east-coast beaches, coloured sands, Lake Garawongera, Lake Wabby and the spectacular Valley of the Giants, where you will camp for two nights in the shadow of some of the most brilliant tree specimens on the island.

At night you will see the intriguing luminescent fungi, and there is a full day to visit the two famous floral monuments, the Giant Satinay and Giant Tallowwood.

Landforms and vegetation types vary from closed rainforest, the more open blackbutt forest of the ridges, central dunes, and the spectacular Hammerstone sandblow which encroaches on famous Lake Wabby.
