Mandu Mandu Gorge loop

📍 Mandu Mandu Gorge

A ~3 km loop up a dry creek bed and back along the gorge rim.

WhenBest Apr–Oct (cool, dry). Avoid the summer heat; start early year-round.Full year on the Plan →

One of Cape Range’s most accessible walks — a loop up a dry, boulder-strewn creek bed through dramatic banded limestone, returning high along the gorge rim with long views back to the reef.

Go early: black-footed rock-wallabies are most active around dawn, sheltering in the gorge walls, and there is almost no shade once the sun is up.

How it works

  • Self-guided and marked; a ~3 km loop rated Class 4 — rocky and uneven underfoot; allow 1.5–2 hrs.
  • Park entry fee applies; no water on the trail.
