Bushwalking
Bunya Mountains National Park
There's a choice of ten well defined bushwalking trails in the pristine Bunya Mountains National Park so you're spoilt for choice. The trails range between 2.5 km and 12 km in length and take between 1 and 4 hours to complete. Most trails are suitable for all ages and fitness levels, with three trails offering a moderately challenging experience.
Poppies on the Hill at the top of the mountain is open from 8am to 4pm daily for breakfast and the Bunya Mountains Tavern is open for lunch daily.
Getting There
The trails are a 35 minute drive by car. With the hairpin turns in the road up the mountain it's safest to leave your van parked at the Bun for the day. It's always cooler on top of the mountain so be sure to take an extra layer!
