- The Steamers - Superbus loop is one of the premier multi-day hikes of the Main Range in South East Queensland. Spanning through the Steamers (Prow, Funnel, Mast and Stern Lookout), Lizard Point, the rainforests of Mount Superbus and the Lincoln Wreck, this hike offers some incredible views and wild country.
Our first night was spent at Lizard Point, one of the best viewpoints in SEQ followed by another night at Superbus South.
Lincoln Bomber A73-64 wreck - In 1955, a Royal Australian Air Force aeroplane was airlifting an ill baby from Townsville to Eagle Farm, and four R.A.A.F. Personnel as well as a nurse and the baby were killed.

Fantastic video. One of the things I really love on a hike is summit views where you don't see anything like farming or human settlements, and there were quite a few of those sort of views in this video. It is one of the things that makes hiking in Tassie so great, but I don't reckon as many people realise you can have that experience in SEQ.
Thanks so much. Yeah, I would have to agree. Summit views into remoteness is so much better. We do have awesome areas in SEQ but TAS will always be my favourite place to walk.
@@AaronGrayOutdoors oh definitely agree, if I were to make a top ten list of hikes I've done, Tassie would absolutely dominate the list!
Thank you, what awesome beauty
Thanks 😊
Absolutely mind blowing scenery my friend, this looks amazing! Bravo 👏👏
Appreciate that, thank you!
Thanks for sharing mate! So keen to hit this loop up soon.
It’s definitely a fantastic loop. Make sure you carry lots of water.
Great video Aaron, you really manage to capture the grandeur of this hike and the 3 themes we’ve had on this. Low water, gympie gympie and broken shoes. Can’t recommend enough to people to not skimp on water on this hike it’s not one you want to run out on.
Thanks Jonno! Yep, you’re certainly right… Definitely had all three!! Requires a good heavy load of water, that’s for sure.
Awesome video Aaron 🤩
Reliving so many hiking memories watching this 🥰
Thanks so much Karen. Glad I could help you relive it - it’s a fantastic circuit.
Such a stunning location mate, thanks for sharing
Cheers! It is a great spot.
Good one dude! Awesome drone footage! I bloody love the Steamers so much! Haven't done it as a loop with Lizard Point though!
Cheers man. Yeah, always a great view! Doing it as a circuit was really enjoyable!
Great stuff Aaron, looks like a tough hike by the soot and look on your face.
Thanks! Yeah it was pretty tiring and fairly humid.
Epic footage from an epic trip! Loved some of those drone shots, along with the clip at 10:14 where my tent looks like it's moving by itself ahaha
Haha thanks mate! Certainly was an epic trip. Yeah I think you were setting up your tent at that stage 🤣. Look forward to seeing your rendition of it!
@@AaronGrayOutdoors I need to get a move on with the editing haha, hopefully I'll have something out by the end of the weekend.
haha you seem to be following me! I was there a few weeks ago too. At the Stern lookout. Amazing place, I want to go there every weekend.
Haha, I promise I’m not 🤣. Yeah it’s a great place, although fairly busy nowadays especially on weekends.
Yeah on the Friday there was nobody else, but as we came back on Saturday there was a group of 16 or so people coming up! Took some epic sunset shots at the Stern, but sunrise was a bit of a fizzer.
Great video Aaron.
Thanks Andy! 👍
Fantastic video. Would love to hear a bit more commentary at the big views...e.g. in the East we see mt such and such, etc
Thanks so much! Great suggestion. I’ll keep it in mind for future videos.
Awesome landscape. What time of the year did you do this? (Apologies if i missed it)
Hey Darren, thanks. We did this back in August. It was warm but wasn’t overly hot.
Hey mate! Looking at just doing the steamers from emu creek road. I don’t have a 4WD but is old mill road walkable to the start of the steamers hike? Does anyone know?
Hey mate, yep it surely is. We only had 1 car available for the circuit so we parked at the corner of Old Mill and Emu Creek road and walked in/out. It adds about 2.5km each way of walking on the road. I hope that helps.
@@AaronGrayOutdoors beautiful! Thanks for the quick reply and for the awesome videos
@@AaronGrayOutdoors oh and any idea of how the Gympie Gympie is around there at the moment?
Thanks! If you are only doing the steamers, then generally none if heading up from Old Mill Road.
