A good walk to get a view of the area - well sign-posted - a little uneven in parts and a couple of steeper short sections - so not for those unsteady on their legs - but great for younger family members as well as their parents.

With 3 others, and what a delightful view around the coastline from this location. However, very disappointed could not find the lighthouse. Recommended to visit and see the view

A strenuous walk to get to Flagstaff Hill from Four Mile Beach, but well worth it as you traverse through interesting bush with glimpses of coastal scenery. There are a lot of stairs (several hundred), so if you don't think you're up to that then there is a road that leads directly to the Lookout.
The views are picture perfect down Four Mile Beach and over the mountains - the best!

Great walk. Slightly challenging on wet trails and with the number of stairs so proceed with caution. The views were magnificent, though, and worth the walk. Free parking at either end of the trail.

A very popular lookout no matter the time of day. Great views of 4 mile beach though. Its worth waiting for your 2 minutes of selfie at the lookout.

Started at 4 mile beach end and took about half hour or so. Another review advised to not walk it in the dark which was helpful. You would slip off the edge easily. We did it at nearly dusk and then got to the park and watched the sunset.

You can walk up the road which has a steady but easily done incline to the lookout. '
