Walks and Wildlife from Point Plomer Campground, Limeburner's Creek National Park, NSW.

Little Beach, Lime Burners Creek National Park.

One of the things we loved the most about winter camping on the mid north coast of New South Wales last year, was the beautiful walks along kilometers of pristine beaches and coastal headlands.

Point Plomer Walking Track
Point Plomer Walking Track is a short, easy walk that leaves from the eastern end of Point Plomer Campground beside Barries Bay and leads to a couple of lookouts on Point Plomer.

As we walked along a narrow section of the path through some fan flowers we saw several Australian Pippits but they didn't hang around for a photo.

Back Beach and Queens Head 
We set out one morning to walk Back Beach and Queens Head. We made this walk up as we went along and it was a great circuit walk of moderate difficulty. We crossed the road behind the campground and took a beach access past the Point Plomer Holiday Cabins to Back Beach.

We walked south along the beach and exited via the beach access to Back Beach Road. We then headed south along Point Plomer Road, past the Back Beach Cultural Camp.

We contined on walking to Queens Head parking area. There is a toilet here and the entry to the walk up Queens Head. Of course you could easily drive to the parking area but what can I say, we like to walk. The climb up to Queens Head is fairly gentle and the views are well worth it.

From this point, we started our return walk by heading north from Queens Head along the beach. There was a fisherman's goat track access up the next headland that we scrambled up to gain access to Back Beach without returning to the road.

We walked north along Back Beach and returned to the campground.

During our walk White-bellied Sea Eagles soared overhead and we saw several lone Dingo trails. Please do not approach or feed Dingos and supervise children at all times while walking in Point Plomer National Park.

We nearly stepped on a harmless legless Burton's Snake Lizard that was quite well camouflaged on the sand.

Burton's Snake Lizards are quite small.
