Mt Philp (Glen Rock Regional Park) |

Hard |
4.5km return 4 hrs |

We did this walk and continued along to red rock then Glen Rock then back to carpark. About to 14km all up with 1050m gain so it was a hard slog - but great views almost all the way. So dry around there at the moment. Saw some cows, a fox and a brush tailed rock wallaby. | ||||

Awesome track. I really enjoyed this one. we combined it with a slight detour to the Jack Ferris lookout and then a walk to the top of Beerburrum at the end. A nice walk. | ||||

Walked to spring mountain and kept going to loop back. We went off track and it super hard. Great views from the summit. I can’t believe I hadn’t been here before. | ||||

Great views from the cave. Faint track but easy to get sidetracked. Pretty tough just to the cave and going to the summit from the cave was too tough for me solo today. | ||||

Took our five and seven year old kids up. It was harder than a few weeks ago as it as was dusty from the lack of rain which made it super slippery and there was a lot of bum sliding coming down. The kids enjoyed the small scramble at the end. Great views at summit - lots of insects at the summit like all the glasshouse mountains. |

Hiked this and two other small Glasshouse Peaks in a morning. Easy walk to the top of Mount Elimbah. There’s a national park sign on the road with space for just a couple of cars. From the carpark follow the trail and turn right and it’s easy to follow the track to the summit. Nice views of the other Glasshouse Mountains. https://www.wikiloc.com/hiking-trails/mount-elimbah-31745440 |

Mt Miketeebumulgrai (Glass House Mountains National Park) |

Hiked this and two other small Glasshouse Peaks in a morning. It was my least favourite of the three. There’s been a fire which means no pink markers remain to the summit. However I think this also means the view is better at the summit as there’s less trees than comments indicate. I just keep walking up the hill until I came to the summit from the national park sign on the road. There was no parking and it was tricky pulling over to park due to long grass. I wouldn’t rush back to this one. https://www.wikiloc.com/hiking-trails/mt-miketeebumulgrai-31745821 |

Final peak of three in one morning Super easy to get to if you park opposite the start of the 202 4WD track as the car park referenced in notes is now the Tibrogargan main car park. Great views and a nice little scramble at the end. I wouldn’t say this is hard but it was fun. https://www.wikiloc.com/hiking-trails/mt-tibberoowuccum-31745980 |

Took my nine year old son up this afternoon - he loved it! The summit became covered in cloud just as we arrived which was sublime. Luckily no accompanying rain so the descent was fine. It would be hard in the wet. |

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