About
Pack a picnic and spend some time at Sherwood lookout at Toonumbar National Park, Sherwood Ranges, with scenic views of an old volcano.
The Sherwood lookout offers scenic views to Mount Lindesay and the McPherson Ranges and the open spot with a picnic table and barbecue facilities makes for a great time with nature.
Though a terrific find all year round, the northerly aspect of the lookout makes it a winter delight. It’s sunny and warm and on a clear day, and you can see well into the forested mountains on the Queensland border.
Whether you’re picnicking, walking, hiking or looking for a great spot to get a perfect shot of Mount Lindesay, a remnant from the Focal Peak s hield volcano, this scenic ridge is a firm favourite for those in-the-know.
