Queensland Walks
Bicton Hill Circuit
Mission Beach
Would you like to..
Bicton Hill is part of the Clump Mountain National Park. The walk has a fairly easy grade as it winds up the hill and forms a loop track apart from the first half a kilometre.
On the way up there are a few places along the way where you can see out past the rainforest to the coastal views below. Keep your eyes open for wildlife and rare palms and cycads.
The summit was once used by locals to spot ships and offers superb views out to sea and the various islands nearby
