Description

Mount Cordeaux (Niamboyoo) is a 1,135 m Queensland mountain north of Cunninghams Gap, opposite Mount Mitchell. Its rainforest walk reaches a lookout below the summit; an extension skirts the mountain to Bare Rock. Trip accounts describe valley views and cold winds on the exposed outcrop. Calculate the outing from the car park actually used, as access diversions can add walking time.

Climbing Experiences

This collection combines Cordeaux/Bare Rock videos, walking guides and a 2012 group trip report. The forest ascent to the lookout can be extended to Bare Rock; the group report describes wind making their rest stop cold. The lookout sits below Cordeaux’s summit. Older accounts illustrate the experience rather than establish current access or conditions.
