Pigeon House Mountain

Pigeon House Mountain, also known as Didthul, is a prominent 720-metre sandstone peak in Morton National Park in the Shoalhaven region of New South Wales, south of Milton. Noted for its distinctive pigeon-house shape first recorded by Captain James Cook in 1770, it offers panoramic views over the Budawang Range, coastline and hinterland. The mountain is accessed via a steep walking track with ladders to the summit and holds cultural significance for Yuin Aboriginal people.

Visitors can expect a challenging 5km return bushwalk through eucalypt forest and sandstone terrain to a fenced summit lookout. The track includes steep sections, metal ladders and staircases near the top. From the summit, there are 360-degree views of Morton National Park, the Budawang wilderness, Shoalhaven hinterland and the coastline toward Ulladulla. The area is natural and undeveloped with no shops, offering a wilderness hiking and photography experience.
