Good to know
- The Oceanview track offers limited wheelchair and pram-assisted access.
- The track is suitable for most children aged 3 and up. You will be required to keep within arm's reach of small children at all times and be wary of uneven tracks, unstable ground, or steep drop-offs.
- The Oceanview track makes its way along the coastline, leading from Tallebudgera Creek around to Burleigh Point.
- The track is 1.2 km one-way and a 'Grade 2' walk, meaning that the track is a hardened surface with gentle hill sections and occasional steps. No bushwalking experience is required, and wheelchair- and pram-assisted access is possible.
- The Gold Coast averages 245 days of clear and sunny weather throughout the year and maintains a warm sub-tropical climate during most seasons, with an average of 20–28 °C in summer and 11–21 °C in winter. Walking in Jellurgal in the summer months can be quite warm, but the rainforest areas can offer a cool escape. The guides will monitor the heat conditions and alter the tour accordingly if required.
