Walk along the river, plenty of picnic spots, water bubblers (including for dogs) and Brisbane’s largest riverside park at the end.
The walk begins in the riparian rainforest and winds its way up into the dry eucalypt expanse of the Brisbane Forest. Note, there a quite a few steep sections (both up and down) which may be covered in loose shale.
The Benarkin to Linville section is 18km, downhill. The only inclines are crossings of Blackbutt Creek. Initially the walk is through gum forest, with stands of hoop pine and stands of silky oak. Then it opens up and runs through farm land for the last 4 or 5 km. There are plenty of birds, notably many brown doves, and flocks of quail. There is a bellbird colony near 130 kilometric mark. Blackbutt is a pretty creek if running. There is a bit of rainforest on the banks. Historical railway spots and information are signed and very interesting. Surface is good - no slippery bits. There are three shelters along the way. MacNamara's Camp. about half way, has a toilet and water tank. Take your own water. And maybe insect repellent.
A short easy walk around Corinda Horse and Pony Club.
Accessible toilet, barbecue (electric), bikeway network, dog off leash area (Arrunga Street), fitness station (Barham Street), picnic area (Barham Street), playground (Barham Street, Perina Street), public toilet (Barham Street), water (bubbler/tap)
A nice 5k walk from Wirrabarra road. I would recommend heading along powerline break first, then up lantana break and coming back down Rocky Mountain High. Lantana break is heading directly up from the gullly to the top of the ridge, quite a challenging walk, but well signposted and takes about two hours all up. I'd recommend heading there after a little bit of rain so that the ground is softer and not at slippery.
Approximately 11kms along the Brisbane Valley Rail Trail. Very exposed, but pleasant walking.
The 19 kilometre Esk to Toogoolawah section of the Brisbane Valley Rail Trail is northwest of Brisbane along the Warrego and Brisbane Valley Highways. This section of the trail travels adjacent to Camp Creek and crosses Cressbrook Creek, a tributary of the Brisbane River, at Toogoolawah. The trail extends through farmland including lucerne, other pasture and small crops that are important to the local economy.
On trail signage indicates classifications between Esk and Toogoolawah. The distance and lack of trail facilities make this section suitable for people with a moderate to high fitness level. There are no drinking water or toilet facilities between Esk and Toogoolawah. Sufficient water must be carried.
Great short to medium length bush walk with not too many many people. There is a very steep section on the southern end of Devils Break which can be covered in shale so appropriate walking shoes are a must here.
An easy walk along the river. Known for its Pheasant Coucal bird population.
