Explore Mount Warning

Mount Warning is a remnant of the Southern Hemisphere's largest extinct shield volcano. Added to the World Heritage List in 1975, the 1100 metre high Mount Warning offers a beautiful walk to the summit through rainforest communities. The five-hour walk can be steep in parts and temperatures can drop rapidly as you ascend. Given its name by Captain Cook, it was used as a warning to sailors of the dangerous Point Danger near Tweed Heads. The Bundjalung people who inhabited the region before European settlement named it Wollumbin, meaning cloud catcher.
