Short walk or jog from Hill End Village Campground. Interpretive panels explain view of past mining activities and abandoned sites.

Stunning look out point with secret entrance to loop around 4x4 4WD track. On the way up to Merlins lookout there is a road to the right with no through road" and if you turn there and go past the commerical shed down a bit you can jump onto a 4x4 track that loops around to the Hill End Tip. You will definitely need a 4WD

Stunning views from the lookout, sunrise is a must if you head up there early enough. There's also a tripod pole that faces the direction the sun rises :)

Great views along the valley from this lookout. A great place for sunrise. The road in is a bit rough and there is only a small turning circle and basically no parking once you arrive at the lookout. Still managed to get the motorhome in though! Less tree blockage than the nearby Split Rock Lookout, so you actually get a better view from here.

It’s a bit of a dirt track to get the lookout, but the view, and peace and quiet was mind blowing. Watch out if you take the kids, there are no fences!If you crave tranquility-come to this piece of paradise.

Amazing view but the lookout is basically just the edge of a cliff/extremely steep embankment (no fence or rail) with a bench seat and history info board. The ground in the area is very loose and rocky underfoot making you a bit anxious trying to enjoy the view whilst watching your footing and being safe.

Well worth the effort to drive out to the spot to see the view of the Hill End diggings that Merlin photographed. Despite the road being dirt, you should have no trouble getting out here with a 2WD.As an added bonus, if you are into geocaching, there is a cache within 50m of the lookout.
