Chinners Lookout.

Has anyone done this lookout. Listmap is not that helpful. Assuming a shortish walk from the roadhead. Any further directions, info. or images appreciated. TIA.

Should be in the Tasmanian section.

First I've heard of it. Assuming the road is open it should be a short, scrubby climb. But don't assume there will be a view - I've recently climbed a couple of named lookouts that provided nothing more than a few small glimpses of distant ridges through the trees.

There are a few old lookout in the NSW Blue Mountains with no view left. Some of them even have toposcopes so there would have been views before the scrub was allowed to grow so dense.

Hmmm. Warrants further exploration, methinks. Ta.
