Route/Trail notes

From the car park walk back along Mount Beerwah Road to Streek Road. Walk down Streek Road passing Nungeena Aboriginak Womens Council property to a gate. Go straight ahead on the track and follow this track without deviation with breaks looking at Mount Beerwah. The grack climbs onto the crest of the D'Aguilar Range and the pine forest boundary road. Turn right and folow this road for about 1.5 km to a hill with a large high tension power staunchion on it. Just past this hill is a track to the right which reenters the natural forest. Follow this track to the national park gate, and continue on the track to the Mount Beerwah Day Use Area and Mount Beerwah Car Park.

Comments

Overcast & showery on the day which made it fairly comfortable to walk around Mt Beerwah, heaps of Golden Orb spiders with huge webs strung across parts of the track which made you keep an eye out for them, nearly had several close encounters.

Nice day for a walk. Glad it was breezy because us "well insulated" fellas feel the heat. I was a little surprised to see so many pig trotter prints in the dried mud. No roos and no koalas spotted (and I was treading lightly & looking closely), but at least three goannas that weren't stoked to see me. Lovely reasonably easy track.

Very eroded, boggy clay-sandy roads (esp. after rains) make up most of this walk, skirting & within the park. Otherwise it's just gravel & bitumen roads back up to the car park. (Completed walk anti-clockwise; description above is for clockwise).

I think I followed a slightly different route turning right at the major intersections but I still found myself up at the power staunchion and then turned right into the bush so roughly the same. Great walk, not too hilly, just enough to get a bit of cardio. Largely had the walk to myself at first before I was inundated with trail bike riders. they were very polite but did destroy the peace a little bit. Still great walk worth doing.

Quite a hilly walk along a range of different roads from bitumen to 4x4. Some were very rough with closed gates. The only place we had some trouble following the directions was the right turn after the power staunchion. We passed one but it wasn’t far enough along. The second was at the top of the next hill. We didn’t see a track after it but there was one before it. Further instructions seemed to be fine. However we only think we walked 7.5km and it took 2 hours 20 minutes. So maybe there was another track further along.
