Made this with Mengyuan, Chunyue, Yuxuan and Lihong. Great view and nice walk, moderate exercise. We were lucky enough to avoid the rain but lots of clouds to provide a cool day during the summer!

This walk was enjoyable and interesting. The views at the top are quite special and there are plenty of places to sit and enjoy them, although it was very busy. Most of the walk is shaded and the path is easy to follow.

One of my favourites. Easy walk and great views. Take insect repellent.

Easier than it used to be, no scramble up the ravine anymore

For the first time ever we had the summit to ourselves. Lovely place with excellent views which explains why it’s usually so popular.

Nice incline walk.
Heavily populated track, I went mid week and there were still a ton of people.
Awesome views of aurrounding glassehouse nountains.

One of the best views on the coast. Very scenic and not too steep going up.

Have only done this walk the once, so far. Great view from the top but way to many people. Get there early for a park.

Awesome Climb! It's really easy, only took me 20 minuets to get to the top.

Great little walk, brilliant views

Easy hike. Cool cave you can climb in to on the way up. Few stairs - bring water :)
View at the top is awesome.

I’ve climbed Mt Ngungun a few times now & will continue to do so cause it never disappoints!

These directions from the aussie bushwalking site is what I used and found good & sufficient, as follows:- Getting there:
Follow Steve Irwin Way to the Glasshouse Mountains Township. Follow the road to the west over the railway lines and turn left into Coonowrin Road at the T junction. Then turn right into Fullertons Road just after the State School and along this road to the car park at the base of the mountain.
Mount Ngungun (pronounced 'noo noo') is a very popular hike due to its relative ease and fantastic views. Others tell me it is pronounced GUN GUN--so am unsure what is correct.

A well defined graded track with some steep sections. The track begins in thin type forest with lots of ferns. Part way up the mountain, there is a great view of Mt Tibrogargan as the track passes a small rock overhang.Good chance for a rest stop. The summit or Apex provides spectacular close-up views of nearby Mt Tibrogargan, Mt Coonowrin and Mt Beerwah. Good photo opportunity.
The path starts from the sign post and and a clear information board. Follow the path, that twists and turns up the hill untill you reach a steep, loose, rocky gully, requiring giant steps with some scrambling using hands and feet to negotiate better, thus a good idea to carry gardening gloves if you want to care for your hands or be sure of a good grip. At the top take the opportunity to have a picnic, breather and take lots of pictures of the views.
Look out for 'The Cave' as an unusual mountain feature.
Steep in parts, some steps, hard but still still suitable for all ages. Get up there first thing in the morning and geet among the clouds--an awesome experience. Do be ultra careful if any dew or rain drizzle about as ultra slippery.
Bit of a false 'top' but if you walk further you will find some more rocks to clamber up to the true summit.

Lovely walk, short but intense. Many steps to get to the top. Busy on weekend

Great fun walk for everyone

Such a beautiful easy hike. Great view of other mountains. Would take others on this one if their fitness is not very good. Marked trail all the way up
