This circuit leads through open woodland and heathland linking Mount Tibrogargan and Mount Tibberoowuccum. Interpretive signs along the track provide details of the area's special features. The Jack Ferris lookout, on Trachyte Ridge, allows for good views of the surrounding peaks. This ridge owes its name to a type of volcanic rock which forms many of the Glass House Mountains peaks.

A very pleasant walk. Viewing the sunset on Tibrogargan from the Jack Ferris Lookout was a real treat. A good hike to bring the kids along

We did this track with our 7 & 9 year old mid morning. We walked the track anti-clockwise from Mt Tibberoowuccum Car Park and went through recently cut down pine plantations. Went to Jack Ferris lookout and came back down to cross Tibrogargan Creek. The trail is pretty easy to follow but a few more track markers would make it easier. There are a few up hill areas and steps in some places. The track has a number of interpretive signs about the plants, animals and mountains in the area.
