Infrastructure work is progressing to reopen Korrumbyn Creek and Breakfast Creek Day Use Areas and Lyrebird track, which were damaged by severe flooding in 2022 and ongoing wet weather. The main carpark and visitor amenities are also being repaired, and new interpretive signage installed. Subject to favourable weather, these areas will reopen by July 2023.
Wollumbin, which rises from World Heritage-listed Wollumbin National Park to a height of 1,157 metres above sea level, is a remnant central vent of an ancient volcano. Formerly known as Mount Warning, this spectacular peak can be viewed from a range of vantage points in the surrounding massive crater (caldera), including Cudgen Nature Reserve, Border Ranges National Park and Nightcap National Park, Cape Byron Lighthouse and various settlements.
