This walk takes you to the top of Queen Mary Falls, which is part of the headwaters of one of Australia's longest river systems, the Murray–Darling. Great care should be taken when viewing the gorge below. Supervise children closely.
From the Queen Mary Falls lookout, watch Spring Creek plunge over the 40m Queen Mary Falls to continue its twisting journey down the valley floor to join the Condamine River. On a summer's day take time to pause for a moment to feel the waterfall's cool spray.
There are often water dragons sunbaking on rocks around the valley floor and the track goes through plenty of ferns and native Australian trees.
Located only 4.5 kms outside of Killarney in the Scenic Rim. The 15m waterfall requires a 600 metre walk along a rough track involving plenty of climbing over rocks and under fallen trees. It is definitely worth the walk.
This hike is not very hard at all. We took the dog on this hike one time and he did great, only needed to be lifted down 1 ledge but he is a sook haha.
Mt Castle is situated North of the more iconic Mt Cordeaux along the Great Dividing Range. Though you technically lose elevation making your way from the carpark to the summit don't let this fool you, it is a very long and challenging hike. There are sections of scrambling along exposed cliffs, bush bashing and steep inclines in either direction. That being said, the walk has some of the best views of the Great Dividing Range.
Near the top of a rocky ridge there's a hole where there used to be a hole. Spectacular views across the Laidley Creek valley , Mt Castle and the Main Range
From Sylvesters Lookout carpark follow an easy walking track to outstanding views. Even though they maybe limited but still worth the walk.

A nice circuit starting off in a eucalypt forest and venturing deeper into the rainforest along the upper reaches of Dalrymple Creek.
Dalrymple is a level 3 track - medium
Cascades is a level 4 track - hard
Easiest way is to complete in clockwise direction and end up on the fire track heading back to the camp ground.
Commencing opposite the Kurrajong picnic area, this trail follows the north branch of Dalrymple Creek, before ending just inside the rainforest edge.
This track winds up Boat Mountain then follows along the ridge at the top to offer sweeping views to the north.
There is a long man-made staircase at the beginning of this walk (approx. 190 steps), making this a Grade 3-4 difficulty trail, but the upper section of the track is mostly flat and very easy to follow, with views that are well worth the effort.
Boat Mountain is named for it's shape, which looks like an overturned Viking ship. Silburns Vine Scrub Walk is a side track off the main trail. It winds through a shady section of dry rainforest that contains many interesting vines and plants (you may wish to wear protective clothing to avoid being scratched by prickly shrubs).
A walk up to Boat Mountain's first lookout with views towards Murgon, through healthy, partly-shaded bushland.
While this is a short and easy to follow track, the walk begins with a long staircase (approx. 190 steps), making this a Grade 3-4 track.
Located next to a camping area with picnic and toilet facilities, the Kinbombi Falls walks are a network of 3 short tracks that descend into a deep gully containing a seasonally flowing creek/waterfall. The combined walks could be done in under an hour, but it is worth setting aside more time to enjoy and explore the gully.
Officially a Grade 5 track (many steep stairs + Tracks 1/3 both have an unstable, unpaved section towards the bottom of the gully), the Kinbombi walks are suitable for people with a moderate-high level of fitness. Ankle-supporting footwear is recommended if you plan to go beyond the cement stairs and explore the gully.
Valley of the Eagles walk starts at the popular Bennetts Gorge picnic area and explores the imposing Mount Gunderbooka in Gundabooka National Park.
Protected since 1977, the best kept bushwalking Brisbane North secret of Sheep Station Creek Conservation Park offers walkers and horse riders a quiet and easy escape into nature. Nothing too strenuous, good for families, no need to be super-fit to enjoy this pleasant walk in a bushy environment.
Named after the prominent koala food trees found within its 231 hectares, the bushland reserve is abundant in wildlife including different species of birds, reptiles, butterflies, marsupials and mammals, its open, grassy forests providing an ideal habitat for the resident koala, wallaby, short-beaked echidna, and locally threatened Greater Glider families. Described as the last piece of original bush in the area, it's great to see it's been preserved.
The Winder track starts at the north-east end of Lookout Road, 6.3 km beyond Kurrajong picnic area. This track passes through rainforest along the crest of the Mistake Range before ending at the 'winder', a piece of relic machinery from the early days of timber cutting.
Short track walk to view great view of Mt Castle, Flinders Peak, and even Brisbane on a clear day.
