Hike Summary
The easy Wilsons Headland walking track links Boorkoom campground with Wilsons Headland picnic area, and comprises a small section of the Clarence Coast's Yuraygir coastal walk. This short track winds along the coastline - passing stretches of endless ocean, isolated beaches and secluded coves.
Hike the track from late winter to early summer to be greeted by banks of wonderful wildflowers, or walk during whale watching season to spot migrating humpbacks. It will be no surprise to you that this easy walk is a long-time favourite among locals. Strategically-placed seats and lookouts allow you to catch your breath and soak up the incredible views - why not take a picnic lunch to enjoy at one of these spots?
