Longlands Gap micro tower Qld

Survey Point Longlands Gap micro tower Qld
Latitude -17.4583300 (17° 27′ 30″ S)
Longitude 145.4886100 (145° 29′ 19″ E)

As far as I can tell the towers that are on the side of Malanda Volcano, are no longer accessible by road, but there are lots of old logging tracks winding through the rainforest which make for excellent birding in the area. Best access is through a locked gate on the corner of Rock Rd with Pickles Rd. Pickles Rd is accessed from the Kennedy Hwy at the crossroads with Tumoulin Rd to the SW of the site.

No camping is advised here
