Walk 30
Cape Conran Nature Trail (East Cape Boardwalk)
Cape Conran is rich in cultural heritage - both Aboriginal and European. Follow the boardwalk around East Cape to Cowrie Bay, where interpretive signs provide a rare glimpse of the significance of the coastal environment for Aboriginal people. Climb the steps from the beach to take the trail through coastal heathland back to Sailors Grave (East Cape Car Park) or continue on to West Cape and Salmon Rocks Beach.
