Experience Norfolk Island National Park and Botanic Garden
Norfolk Island National park is a wonderful place for bushwalking, birdwatching and taking in the many scenic views of Norfolk and Phillip islands from various vantage points.
The summits of Mount Pitt and Mount Bates provide views across Norfolk and towards Phillip Island. At present these peaks can only be accessed by foot, walking a gradual to steep track for 1.5 km - 2 km. Other views of the spectacular coastal scenery and many species of seabirds can be enjoyed from the Cook Monument, and various locations along the northeastern cliffs, particularly at the coastal end of the Bird Rock track.
Norfolk Island's nature and culture offers a special experience for visitors. To find out more about what's on offer outside the park visit The world of Norfolk website.
Park headquarters and visitor centre
At the park headquarters a natural history display, provided by the Norfolk Island Flora and Fauna Society, provides visitors with detailed information about the island's plants and animals, geological beginnings and more. The park Headquarters is located at the corner of Grassy Road and Mount Pitt Road next to the entrance to the Botanic Garden.
