Starting from Trinity Beach, the Bakarra Track winds through shaded tropical bushland before linking to the Earl Hill walking track, rewarding the climb with sweeping Coral Sea views. The full 3.4km loop rises steadily, with a mix of gentle paths and steeper sections leading to panoramic lookouts, perfect for taking in the coastline from above. Bring plenty of water before you set off, as there are no facilities along the trail.
