When camping in Cania Gorge it is worth the days drive from this start point up to the Kroombit Park lookout and then onto the crash site of the WW2 plane "Beautiful Betsy". The crash site was only discovered in 1994 by a range checking burn off.
The drive is mostly just dirt roads with a few rocky areas and a steep climb or 2. You wind through private cattle properties with a few small creek crossings before getting to the lookout in the National Park.
