Notable for its dense rainforest, diverse flora and fauna, and remote bush camping, it offers an immersive nature experience within one of Queensland's most accessible coastal national parks.

Visitors can expect a remote, self-reliant bushwalking experience through dense lowland tropical rainforest and along ridgelines in Conway National Park. The circuit track includes steep climbs, creek crossings, and uneven natural surfaces with exposed roots and rocks. There are designated bush campsites, lookouts with views over Airlie Beach and the Whitsunday Passage, and opportunities to observe native plants, birds and wildlife. The track is marked with signage and is intended for experienced hikers.

Conway National Park was gazetted in 1938 to protect one of the largest areas of lowland tropical rainforest in Queensland outside the Wet Tropics. The Conway Circuit was developed as a long-distance walking track to provide access to the Conway Range and its rainforest environment.

Conway National Park lies on the traditional lands of the Ngaro and Gia peoples. The rainforest and coastal landscape holds cultural significance for Traditional Owners and reflects long-standing connections to Country.
