Suitable only for fit, experienced and well-prepared bushwalkers, the 15 kilometre Bartle Frere trail extends from the Atherton Tableland to the coastal plain across the impressive Bellenden Ker Range. Crossing Wooroonooran National Park, it ascends the summit of Queensland’s highest mountain, Bartle Frere (1622 metres) on the way. This, the western approach, starts at an altitude of 700 metres. A short distance from the start of the trail at Junction camp is a turnoff to picturesque Bobbin Bobbin Falls. The trail to the North West Peak (1476 metres) is steep with occasional rock scrambles. It continues to Western Summit camp, set in a small clearing beside a creek. From here the trail becomes a rock scramble over and through granite boulders to the summit, with views (when clear) to the coast and across the Atherton Tableland.
