HIKING OFF TRACK in the Australian Bush = THESE VIEWS
Follow on Instagram: @schmidtdogg_
Hiking off track in Australia can be brutal.. This mountain was no exception.
Very few people have hiked up this mountain and even less have loaded up with overnight gear and camped up here. 10 hours, with 25kg on the back, pushing through very dense scrub, in the harsh Northern Australian sun.. This was no easy accomplishmeant and definitely not for the faint of heart.
We hadn't seen any photos from up here before so there were many times we questioned if it would even be worth it. We kept pushing on and the hard yards definitely paid off. The views were EPIC and the serenity was as pure as it gets. I might even do it again next year 🤷‍♂️

Australia's Most UNIQUE Mountain Views!? (Off Track Mountain Mission)
มุมมอง 51110 หลายเดือนก่อน
I reckon this has to be one of the most unique mountain top views in all of Australia. The way all the creek systems and mountain ranges align and create such a picture perfect frame for a photo.. Almost looks too good to be true. Like a painting or something man-made. We are so lucky to have awesome landscapes like this up in Tropical North Queensland! Follow us on Instagram..

How we found this 'UKNOWN’ waterfall

At the time of making this video, we don't know anyone else who has been to these falls, never seen a photo of them before and it's completely unmarked on topo maps! Definitely not trying to say we are the first, but just trying to showcase how special and 'off-grid' a spot like this is! Follow us on Insta: @schmidtdogg_ @exploremorewithdizz

BEST ROAD TRIP IN AUSTRALIA? (Perth - Exmouth)
