Lovely peaceful and secret gardens. Had the place to ourselves other than the gardeners. Nothing too strenuous just a stroll in the park | ||||

Lovely destination and well worth the up and down and up and down and up and down of going over the ridges. Saw the eel in the main pool area as well as a couple of other smaller ones. | ||||

Did this walk on a quiet day, had the track to ourselves. Whilst I would say I am relatively fit for my age, it was quite a challenge and I take my hat off to all those who say they have taken younger kids up there. Nice views from the top but it would have been nice for more views of the lake. Still enjoyed the challenge though | ||||

Did this walk and combined it with the Atrax Circuit. Quite a nice stroll on a Friday around lunch time. The views are very nice from the lookout and nice easy walk to get there. If anything the Atrax Circuit component of the walk is a little more difficult as it has a few steps to go up and down but still relatively easy going to anyone with at least a little level of fitness. | ||||

Did this as part of the Morelia Track. Not too difficult and we just combined it on the way back to walk a different way to the car park. A few steps but nothing too hard. | ||||
Bare Rock track and Morgan's Walk (Main Range National Park) |

Did this walk on a Wednesday and had it all to ourselves, apart from around the carpark we didn't see another person for the full 13km walk and felt like the only ones on the planet for a few hours. The path leads off from the Rainforest Circuit Walk which is on the Brisbane side of the carpark. We did the full Mt Cordeaux, Bald Rock, and Morgan's. We stopped for about 15 minutes at Mt Cordeaux and had lunch for 30 minutes at Bald Rock and what a view it was. All up we took about 5 hours but stopped heaps to take over 50 photos. The photos on here can only tell part of the magnificence of the views, simply fantastic. This will be one I do again for sure. | ||||

White Rock Ridge Hike (White Rock - Spring Mountain Conservation Estate) |

Nice walk, although attempted to do it mid week when we hoped it would be quieter, we forgot about the Ekka Holiday and the car park was pretty full, although once on the track it was not too busy. We did the White Rock Ridge Track on the way to White Rock and then followed the multi-user trail on the way back. All were fairly well signposted with the Ridge Track a little steeper in some places but not as hard as I thought it would be. A few people walking their dogs, which surprised me although I did not check at the picnic area if dogs were allowed it states they are not on here. | ||||

First walk completed using this site, good relaxing walk only a few minutes from Springfield. Great instructions on how to find the start of the walk, however the Beaudesert Connection Road is now called the Springfield Greenbank Arterial. |
