Sunrise from Mt. Warning (1157m), the first point to be hit by sunlight on mainland Australia every morning. We started the climb at 3am by torchlight to arrive at 5am for the first twilight.

Mt. Warning is extremely popular on New Year’s Eve, for people who want to see the first light of the new year. It’s also a favourite destination for pagans, who enjoy the vantage for sun-worship, and the numerous hippies who live in the surrounding area, who enjoy just chilling out. And with a view like this, why not?
