Wollumbin National Park (Mount Warning), NSW, Australia - National Parks of the World on Waymarking.com

Wollumbin means (appropriately) "Cloud Catcher". The National Park covers 4,117 ha.
"Wollumbin, which dramatically rises from World Heritage-listed Wollumbin National Park – formerly known as Mount Warning National Park – to a height of 1,157m above sea level, is a remnant central vent of an ancient volcano. This spectacular feature can be viewed from a range of vantage points in the surrounding massive crater (caldera)" (some of the northern edge of the caldera is the Queensland border).

There is a nice picnic area at the end of the road / start of the track. There is a total of x 5 emergency helicopter evacuation points along the track, including the summit. The last 200m is a very rugged climb, and expect to use some chains placed to assist you to climb the rock slabs.

Car based, and caravan camping is available in areas adjacent to the National Park

Visit Instructions:

A log will require a recent photograph at the coordinates. Some of these locations will be placed for the scenery, so a gpsr will just ruin the picture.

If you don't have a digital camera post a descriptive log.
