Ulysses Link Walk

A wonderful walking track is known to locals as the Ulysses Link Walking Track. Coiling its way along Mission Beach’s foreshore, the areas Indigenous and European history can be learnt through interpretive artworks created by local artists.

Named for the brilliant blue Ulysses butterflies, the one and a half kilometre Ulysses Link Walking Track winds its way along the breathtaking foreshore. It begins at the Hub shopping Centre and meanders along the foreshore to Clump Point. You can easily return along the beach if you wish to do a circuit. If you wish to walk further, it links with Cutten Brothers walk at the northern end.

The walk includes a variety of local features - locally carved poles and artwork, a tourist visitor centre and cassowary information centre, an arboretum of native rainforest plants and, of course, the views of the beach and Dunk Island.

The history of Mission Beach has been interwoven along the walk with indigenous and historical stories expressed through mosaics, carvings and ceramic sculptures created by local artists.
