The best way to explore Fraser Island is by getting up close and taking advantage of the variety of walking tracks on offer. Ranging from short boardwalks through the rainforest, longer walks through sandblows and a variety of coastal woodland habitats to a hiking trail that takes in several of the Island's lakes. These walks allow you to truly see the Island and the diverse ecosystems it supports. Foot prints only.
