Mount Kaputar Summit Path

This short return walk in Mount Kaputar National Park takes you from Kaputar Summit Road to the platform at the top of Mount Kaputar with great views over the area. Let us begin by acknowledging the Kamilaroi people, Traditional Custodians of the land on which we travel today, and pay our respects to their Elders past and present.
