Ranked among Australia’s greatest day walks, the Mount Gower Trek is an extraordinary – and seriously challenging – Lord Howe Island experience.
The 8–10-hour trek climbs to Mount Gower’s 875-metre summit, tackling steep, rugged terrain and demanding sections that require a strong level of fitness and a head for adventure.
