Thunderbolts Lookout - NSW

Thunderbolts Lookout Torrington. Walking track access. Well worth the climb. Take some water with you.

Thunderbolts lookout walking track meanders through the bush from Nomads picnic area along a well-defined trail. Enjoy the colourful display of wildflowers during the warmer months along the way.

The last 200m is mostly steps which climb through a rock shelter and up a steep 5m metal ladder; it’s a challenging climb, but one where you’ll be rewarded for your efforts.

Named after the famous local bushranger, Captain Thunderbolt, the lookout offers spectacular 360° panoramic views. From such a great vantage point you may just get to see the rare glossy black cockatoo, often seen in pairs, flying overhead.
