An escape to Brisbane's ultimate remote campsite - Point Pure
An overnight adventure out to one of Brisbane's best remote campsites. Point Pure is located close to Brisbane in the northern section of the Main Range National Park, near Glen Rock.
Join us as we tackle the challenging 6 hour hike from the Glen Rock day use area, following a mix of fire trails and open grassy ridges to the summit of Point Pure. The campsite is a flat open grassy area with a magnificent view into the surrounding valleys.
I celebrated my 40th birthday atop this peak with some friends.
Shot entirely in S-Cinetone with the Sony ZV-E1 (16-35mm F4 PZ) and DJI Mini Pro 3.
Some of the gear I used (not sponsored) is as follows:

Happy 40th. I went there a few weeks after you for my birthday. Mid July
Nice one! Hope you had a good time. Happy birthday too 🎉🎉
Hell yeah mam, what a view!! What a hike!!
Thanks! You’ll have to get out there soon.
Happy birthday Aaron! Good stuff mate!
Legend! Thanks a ton.
Awesome spot! Worth the hike in for sure. Hope it was a great 40th
Cheers Lucas. Yeah it was good! Pity you left back to TAS just prior to this one.
Looks like it was a wonderful campsite! I've been contemplating this one, wondering how it compares to the Glen Rock summit and ridge traverse if you've done that. Were there any sketchy bits, or was it just hard uphill and overgrown? Did you carry all your water in?
It’s a special place. I haven’t been up Glen rock yet, but no there were no difficulties. Just one really scrubby / overgrown descent from the ridge to the creek. The creek is 20min from camp so you can fill up there.
Looks unreal - curious as to whether Funnel or the Mast are climbable?
Thanks. I know the mast certainly is as I remember seeing a picture of someone tight roping between the stern and the mast. Insane right.
@@AaronGrayOutdoors That does sound insane. I’m still just trying to figure these peaks out via the topographic map and in my head. Am I right in saying that in the first frame of your video on the left is where the stern lookout is, the centre but background is Funnel and the point one on the right is Mast?
@@joekruger4973 correct. In order from closest to furthest is: stern, mast, funnel, prow.
Loved this!!!
Thank you 🙏
I’ve done this hike with a bunch of mates. It is a hard slog in places. Lot’s of feral pigs near the waterfall too. Beautiful views though
We saw signs of pigs but didn’t see any pigs themselves. Thanks.
This is a harrowing hike with all the false peaks and lack of decent trail. Well done on making it!
Thanks! Appreciate it.
Quality birthday well spent with mates, big open campsite for all those tents 👌
Absolutely! Pity you couldn’t make it. Next time!
Did it as a solo day hike 4 weeks ago. Best remote hike ive done in SEQ. It literally has everything a purist wants. Great vid and i can see from how ecstatic you was that it ranks high in your list.
Cheers! Would have been a big one out there in a day. It’s a fantastic hike.
Happy Birthday mate 😊 Another great video, I’ve added it to my bucket list ❤
Thanks mate. It’s certainly a good one!
@@AaronGrayOutdoors Would be great to tag along with you one day. Would make a great video. 😉
Looks like a great way to celebrate a birthday mate! Thanks for sharing
Cheers! Thanks 🙏
Happy Birthday! Looks like a great spot, nice to look back to cooler weather haha
Thanks mate! Sure is haha. It’s getting hot. Luckily I’m escaping to NZ next week for a few weeks 👍
@@AaronGrayOutdoors take me with you 😄 I am planning on going to the South Island and Tassie sometime over the summer too. Where abouts are you heading?
@adammurphy2065 South Island for 3 weeks. I prob won’t get back to Tassie until Feb at this stage.
I call places like Point Pure 'old country', as they remind us of how the entire country was before European settlement. The Mt Mistake Range was logged during the twentieth century and is now regenerating, however the western side around there may have been spared. It certainly looks pristine. May I suggest Mount Ballow in the Mt Barney National Park for a future expedition...
Thanks mate. Yeah, I can certainly imagine. Mount Ballow is on the list. Probably one for next winter now with the heat upon us though.
Happy Birthday mate. Your adventures will always keep you younger than 40 brother! Great to see you still doing it and now with 1.87k subscribers😎
Thanks mate! Good to see you are still around and watching. Appreciate it. Yep, still certainly kicking on with it, although growth is a slow process here on the tube.
Nice video Aron. Wishing you a wonderful weekend. Take care 🙂
Thank you! Same to you. Hopefully one day I’ll be able to experience a hike over in Norway.
Sweet as - I prefer the non-hiking adventure vids - more of these please :P
Thanks! Will try.
Looked like a great trip! Glad you got through the vegetated areas unscathed.
Cheers! It was a great trip. I know right, haha.
Awesome! Thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching! Cheers.
Some of those rapids looked hectic!
Cheers! They were.
wow this looks like so much fun! i’ve never heard of pack rafting until i watched this video. i just went on a portage trip on a inflatable 2 person kayak and if i knew these types of rafts were a thing before that it would have saved us from the packing stress hahaha! great video
Haha thanks! Yeah packrafts are awesome. Highly recommend.
nice one . what a great [part of Oz and what an awesome adventure
Cheers! It was a fantastic part of AU.
awesome video mate - some of that whitewater looked hectic! Keep it up!
Thanks! Appreciate that. It was some great paddling.
that foggy morning looked really nice!
Thanks. It was definitely a special experience to be covered in such a dense fog.
@AaronGrayOutdoors love your work- keep it up
Awesome vid mate. I went car camping at paddys flat a few months after the lismore floods and it was pretty amazing seeing how high the river had been. Love it down there, and now you've inspired to do the same one day 😂
Cheers, appreciate that! It was my first time at Paddy's Flat but it certainly looks like a great spot to have a car camp.
Do you know what the river height was?
It was high; about 1.3m on the Clarence River at Tabulam.
Been waiting for a new upload! Looks like fun.
Thanks Adam. I have a few more already filmed that I need to edit so should have more coming very soon. I am a bit behind; this trip was back in May 🤣
@@AaronGrayOutdoors yeah the weather didn't look recent haha. I went to Yuraygir the other night, what a lovely spot. Saw the spot you stayed too, I preferred the big grassy area, I don't like sand in my tent haha.
Looks like great fun. Never tires packrafting. Thank you for sharing. Take care.
Thanks for watching. It’s a lot of fun!
Hey mate, awesome video, love the drone shots! I was just wondering how you brought enough water up for a trip so long? Or were there creeks and water holes you filtered water with and drank? Thanks.
Hey mate, cheers! Nah. We both carried about 4-5L each and just had to ration for the two nights. The only water source is the one we crossed on day 3.
Aaron, I just found your channel while watching RUclips, late on a Saturday night. Your videos are amazing. This particular one confirms for me that Tasmania has got to be the most beautiful place in Australia. Your videos deserve millions of views. Thank you!
Welcome! Thanks so much. Tasmania is stunning. Appreciate it 🙏
Do you have map of the trail you did for this? Me and my mate are looking for a trail to do for our first overnight hike.
It’s a great first overnight hike. I don’t have a trail, but you should easily be able to find one on alltrails or wikiloc. Navigation here is certainly not difficult. Enjoy!
Very nice video. I absolutely love Girraween NP, I go there as often as I can 🤙
Appreciate that cheers! Yep, I’m due for another trip soon.
Nice informative video. Great scenery. Thank you for sharing 😊
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it. Cheers!
Really great resource for going on this hike. Fantastic footage, editing and mood as well. Cheers mate!
Cheers! Thanks for the feedback, appreciate it!
Absolutely love Girraween NP 👌
Yep, its definitely one of my favorites!
Far out man!! Those views!! 😍😍 what a tough, but amazing adventure!! Really well done!!
Thanks man! Still stands out as the best hike I've done to date!
Oh crikey, what a spot!! What a view! You captured some really good footage! Nice one man!!
Thanks bud! You should get out there.
Your commentary and filming on this video was excellent and your closing remarks around the incident and learnings were profound and meaningful mate , nice work
Thanks a lot. I really appreciate it. Cheers!
Love the camera work. Beautiful portrayal!
Thanks so much. Appreciate it!
Try going to The Lost World - before you turn off to Rat a tat.
Yep, I've been up there from the other end (Kerry's Rd). Still yet to do an overnight up there, so I will at some point in the near future.
Great Video! Ian's sign off..😂
Haha. Ian is certainly a memorable character.
I was thinking of one day moving to Adelaide but now I’m thinking somewhere in Queensland
Haha. Queensland is great as long as you don’t mind a hot summer.
Awesome video Aaron for our beautiful walk! Ian's sign- off is hilarious!
Thanks Ling. Appreciate it!!
What an adventure!! Well done dude! Mt Donaldson has been on my list for a few years now. One day I'll get there!
Cheers. It’s a tough one but definitely worth the effort. Thanks dude!
Beautiful 😮 I've never hiked in Austria, hope I will someday😮
Thanks! It is beautiful, that’s for sure.
Epic scenery! Wish I wish free to have joined you on this one. Sunrise looked really sweet, and that gorge also seemed fun.
Yeah man. It’s a pity you missed it.
Looks like a great trip mate, I'll definitely have to get up that way at some point. Thanks for sharing
For sure! Hit me up if you ever do. I still need to get down south. Thanks!
Fantastic video. Thanks for sharing. 👍23
Thank you! Cheers!
The warmth from the sun after getting up to watch sunrise really is the best feeling.
Sure is. Possibly the best moment of the day. Thanks!
