May lookout
Morton National Park
Overview
May lookout is on the East Rim and Wildflower walking tracks in Morton National Park. Only 15mins walk from the Fitzroy Falls Visitor Centre, this is a great spot to take in sweeping valley views.
After leaving the Fitzroy Falls Visitor Centre, May lookout is the first lookout you'll encounter on the East Rim and Wildflower walking tracks, located to the left of Fitzroy Falls.
Perched on the edge of the gorge, and nestled near native shrubs, trees and wildflowers, May lookout offers stunning views across Yarrunga Valley and is a popular location to immerse yourself in the sights and sounds of birdlife.
On your way to the lookout you'll pass a variety of native plants and trees, including scribbly gums, hakea, banksia and wattle, with helpful plaques provided to assist you with plant identification. When you reach the lookout, keep an eye out for the nearby termite mound and the superb lyrebirds that are active in the area.
