Gugigugi (Butterfly) Walk (Wet Tropics Great!Walk)
On the first day of the Gugigugi Walk (18.7 kilometres) in the Wallaman Falls section of Girringun National Park, you can enjoy a pleasant walk through open forest along the high banks of the Herbert River. Keep your eyes and ears open for resident wildlife. Listen for the noisy chatter of scaly-breasted lorikeets or the deep, gruff call of a wompoo fruit-dove. Then enjoy a night camping under the stars at Stony Creek campsite.
As you wander the track towards Henrietta gate on the second day (19.6 kilometres), you will see that some areas are not the pristine natural environments you expect to find in a national park.
Despite the presence of weeds and feral animals, this area is special. Previously, most of the area was used for grazing. The area is now a protected habitat for the endangered mahogany glider and work is underway to control the spread of weeds and remove feral animals.
