Hi All,
The mountain that you see in the distance is called Mt Warning, also known as "Wollumbin".
Mt Warning is the remnant central plug of an ancient volcano called the "Tweed Volcano" or "Mount Warning Shield Volcano". The caldera valley of this shield volcano is over 1000 metres deep and has a diameter of over 40 kilometres, making it the largest erosion caldera in the southern hemisphere and one of the biggest calderas in the world.
The climb up to the summit of Mt Warning, is beautiful and slightly challenging. The rainforest and its "wollombin palms" are gorgeous. Once getting past the "stairway to torture", over 1000 steps you need to climb, the path eases off, until the final climb, which involves scrambling up the rocky summit with the guide of chains.
I've made it up to the summit a few times. It's good fun.
