Trail Fast Facts
The Pinnacles Loop is a 1.1km, grade 3 hike in Beowa National Park, New South Wales. This hike typically takes 45 minutes to complete.
Hike Overview
The Pinnacles are an amazing brightly coloured rock feature and the centre piece of this walk. The reds and white of the rock contrasts with the green heath and blue sea creating a fantastic sight. The smaller lookout one without a sign is a better lookout than the larger area. However both lookouts give a good view of the Pinnacles.

About the region
Beowa National Park, formerly Ben Boyd National Park, spans 47km of rocky coastline and sheltered inlets. Located near the whale watching town of Eden on the far South Coast of NSW, its crystal clear waters are perfect for snorkelling and swimming.
Beowa National Park is separated into 2 areas, split by Twofold Bay. Take your pick from the sparkling lakes and surf beaches in the park's Pambula-Haycock area to the rocky cliffs and beachside campgrounds in the Green Cape area.
Its spectacular sea-carved landscape is a striking display of folded red rock platforms that contrast against the sapphire blue water of the ocean.
