A cliff viewpoint at the entrance to the Berijam Lake trail, overlooking a deep valley, with a stone memorial to the engineer who built the road.
Moir Point is named after Sir Thomas Moir, the British engineer who built the Berijam road. It lies at the western end of the forest loop, near the Berijam checkpoint. From the cliff edge you can see the deep valley and the plains beyond, and a memorial dated 1929 stands beside it. It is run by the forest department.
