Join Wildlife Queensland Townsville Branch for a walk along sections of the tracks at the summit of Mount Stuart where you’ll enjoy spectacular views across Townsville and the surrounding countryside and meet local wildlife. There is a ‘loop track’ around the tower installations and the lookout, a track through the reserve south of the towers and a much-used track that leads northeast to the cliffs where adventurous people go abseiling.
Meeting time and place: At 9:00 am, at the carpark between the Stuart Hotel and the BP service station on Stuart Drive.
Transport: People will provide their own transport to the meeting place, but please email us if you need a lift.
What to bring: Good shoes for walking on an uneven track with potentially loose rocks (walking poles could be useful for some of us), morning tea, *WATER*, gear for birdwatching and photography, HAT, sunscreen, insect repellent and whatever else you think appropriate for an area with no facilities. Given the time of the year, a raincoat and/or umbrella could also be handy!
