    Hiked here the weekend just gone with some mates, based solely upon watching your video - so thanks for showing us! Lovely campsite, definitely the nicest campsite I’ve been to.4WD access needed to get to the end of the road (we left a 2WD car a few km back). That climb at the end though? Bloody hell that was tough, but SO WORTH IT for the views

    Haha yes, it is a very steep climb but it is definitely worth it!!! I was up there again on Friday night that just passed. We did a day trip to Mount Huntley on Saturday before returning home. We did go past a group of like 8 heading up there for Saturday night. I assume that wasn't your group? Panorama Point itself also offers amazing views but is more of a climb.

    Hey Mark. From the end of Old Mill Road, we went straight up Davies Ridge until we hit the main ridge. Then followed that up to Lower Panorama Point. Whilst there is no scrambling, there is one really steep section. I re-visited this about 6 months ago, and the trail is way more overgrown now (weed infested). Navigational skills are definitely required. I hope that helps.

    Thanks! It’s only 2 hours from car to camp, although steep in places. It’s fairly easy navigation wise, just stick to the ridge and the feint but easy to follow footpad and you can’t go wrong. Enjoy!
