Finch Hatton Gorge
 |
 |
Finch Hatton Gorge is located just outside
of Finch Hatton, between Mackay
and the Eungella
National Park. On arriving at Finch Hatton Gorge,
you will find a large BBQ and picnic area, as well as some
amenities. It is from this point that you can join one of
the fabulous walking trails. |
|
Within the Finch Hatton Gorge, there are
a couple of magnificent walking trails. The shorter walk
is 1.6km (one way), taking you to the small, but pretty
Araluen Falls. It returns along the same path, however,
it also makes up the first section of the longer walk (which
is definitely worth the extra distance).

The longer walk continues on to the Wheel of Fire Falls,
and is a total of 2.1km (one way). The scenery along the walks is wonderful,
with a variety of plants and trees. You will also find a refreshing swimming
hole at Finch Hatton Gorge, as well as accommodation
set amongst the fabulous landscape.
