This return walk begins at the Green Camp carpark and ascends 350m through whitebox woodland to the the base of the Yulludunida 'crater'. This 'crater' is actually not a crater but a ring dyke of volcanic rock. It formed when a plug of molten lava surged upward through a volcanic vent but collapsed back on itself before fully solidifying. The walking track winds its way up through the woodlands and ends at the base of the crater. From here, there are no marked routes but experienced walkers can scramble up the rock face to the summit of Mt Yulludunida, which offers magnificent views across the western plains, including the town of Narrabri. The remains of an old fence, built to control dingos in the 1930s, can still be seen running along the spine of Mt Yulludunida.
