Pholis Gap walking track

North Coast, NSW

A 4km return Nightcap walk from Mount Nardi to escarpment views of Wollumbin–Mount Warning.

About this place

Pholis Gap walking track starts at Mount Nardi carpark in western Nightcap National Park. NPWS lists 4km return, Grade 3, 1 hour 30 minutes to 2 hours, with views across to Wollumbin-Mount Warning and the Nightcap escarpment. It is a shorter Nightcap extra than Historic Nightcap, on the same Nimbin access. Some bushwalking experience is recommended; short steep hills. Cloud can sit on the escarpment — go on a clear winter morning for the volcano views.

Western precinct of Nightcap National Park. From Nimbin take Sibley Street and drive to Mount Nardi carpark. Same trailhead precinct as Historic Nightcap.
