NPWS lists Lost City walking track as a 6 km return, 2-4 hour walk in Gardens of Stone State Conservation Area. From Lost City carpark it is 400 m to Lost City lookout over nationally significant platy pagodas and Marrangaroo Creek. The Grade 3 circuit crosses the creek and two 1920s heritage dams, then climbs to Lost City North lookout. Miners Pass link track is an optional steep Grade 4 historic miners route, not for small children. Stay on the track; pagodas are fragile. No phone reception.
