This alert applies to the following parks:
- Lamington National ParkBrisbane; Gold Coast
- Gold Coast Hinterland Great WalkBrisbane; Gold Coast
Due to the potential for rock fall associated with construction works on private property above the Lower Bellbird track, a section of the walking track will be temporarily closed between Rankins Paddock and the junction of the Ships Stern circuit until further notice, to ensure visitor safety.
Visitors will still be able to access the Ships Stern circuit, however, will be required to exit via the upper section of the Lower Bellbird track.
The temporary closure will also affect a portion of the Gold Coast Hinterland Great Walks (GCHGW). Visitors intending to walk the GCHGW will be required to deviate along the Caves track rather than the Lower Bellbird track to continue the GCHGW.
Observe all signage, barriers, and directions from rangers and do not enter closed areas.
Commercial tour operators and other permit or agreement holders are not permitted to enter closed areas.
Park Alerts are regularly updated regarding condition on park.
