With sheer sandstone cliffs 100 metres high, Robinson Gorge winds past cabbage palms and bottlebrushes for 14 kilometres through remote Expedition National Park. This is a park of great historical importance. The explorer Ludwig Leichhardt passed through the area in 1844, and it protects a wealth of Aboriginal cultural sites. Take fuel and water to enjoy camping at Starkvale or Spotted Gum camping areas. Watch Australian king-parrots and rainbow lorikeets feed in summer, and golden whistlers and grey fantails in winter. From Starkvale, follow walking tracks to Robinson Gorge, Shepherd’s Peak or to a natural lookout over the 'Cattle Dip' - a spectacular permanent waterhole in the gorge.
