Mount Pitt Lookout delivers some of the most commanding views on the island, all without breaking a sweat. Accessible by car or a short hike, this is one of Norfolk’s highest points, offering a full 360° view across lush forests, sweeping coastlines, and the deep blue of the Pacific Ocean. At 320 metres above sea level, it’s a must-visit for photographers, nature lovers, and stargazers.
Located in the heart of Norfolk Island National Park, Mount Pitt is more than a lookout, it’s a front-row seat to the island’s natural drama. You’ll spot Phillip and Nepean Islands offshore, see planes arriving and departing below, and catch the sun casting golden light over ridgelines and valleys.
Come nightfall, the lookout transforms into a Dark Sky site, perfect for stargazing. With minimal light pollution, Norfolk Island is a Gold Level Dark Sky Town, and Mount Pitt offers one of the best spots to take it all in.
