Hello all
I am looking for a resource to find walks. The area could include SEQ down to Coffs Harbour and inland to Armidale. So far bookshops have not been a help and the various government websites not all that easy to navigate. Are there any books or websites that collate this information?
Thanks.

Just a few from me, I'm sure others will chime with a lot more....
http://www.takeawalk.com.au/http://www.southee.com/ based on the bushpeoples guide to bushwalking s/east qld
http://bushwalking.meetup.com/cities/au/brisbane/Bushwalking clubs...check out their newsletters. Join if you wish. Again many more out there.
http://www.bbw.org.au/http://www.bushwalkingqueensland.org.au/clubs_bne.phphttp://www.bosq.bwq.org.au/http://www.bushwalkers.com/http://www.redlandbushwalkers.org.au/Maps on dvd.....search and seek to your hearts content.
Sunmap rastor for S/East Qld
Topoview rastor for NSW
And as you've already checked out....National Park websites in QLD & NSW
Just a few ideas to get you started......researching an area your interested in is all part of the fun.
