Itinerary description
This 60km tour takes in some of the best of Moreton Island and has some small walks to keep the feet happy. We arranged a local tour company to pick us up at the Wrecks Camp Ground on the western side of Moreton, in a 7 seater 4wd. There are many camp ground along the beaches so its also ideal for a multiday hike. We initially travelled 8 km along Middle Rd, over to Mt Tempest. Its a fairly easy 1.5km walk up to the summit (285m), which is the highest spot on Moreton and gives you great views around the Island. From there we travelled to the east coast and visited Blue Lagoon and the Lighthouse area. Next, we stopped at Honeymoon Bay, Champagne Pool at the northern point of Moreton and then across to check out the towns of Bulwer, Cowan Cowan and back to the Wrecks.
