Mount Bishop Lilly Pilly Gully is a 9.6km, grade 3 Circuit hike located in Wilsons Promontory National Park Victoria. The hike should take approximately 3hrs to complete.

Summary

The Mount Bishop Lilly Pilly Gully  explores the rocky summit of Mount Bishop and offers magnificent views of the Prom’s west coast and offshore islands. It is well worth the rock scramble to the summit. This hike is a combination of the Mount Bishop hike and the Lilly Pilly Gully Track. From the carpark Follow the Lilly Pilly Gully Circuit Track east. About three quarters of the way (approx 4.1km) around the circuit track turn right at the side track that leads to the rocky summit of Mount Bishop. After taking some time to appreciate the breathtaking views retrace your steps to the Lilly Pilly Gully Track then turn right to return to the car park.
