Pheasants Peak Walking Track

Highlights

Pheasants Peak Walking Track is an exciting journey through towering eucalypt forests and alongside massive granite boulders. As you climb higher, you’ll be greeted by breathtaking views across the Monaro Plains, with the Snowy Mountains in the distance. The summit is especially magical, with giant granite tors scattered across the landscape, making it feel like stepping into a fantasy world!

This is a great spot for a family picnic, especially at sunset when the sky lights up with colours. On misty days, the thick clouds make the landscape look mysterious and timeless. It’s a fantastic way to connect with nature and enjoy some peaceful moments together!
