A Long walk up a well maintained track. The last 50 odd metres requires climbing up and over some rock. At this same point, there is a chain to help you in required, but this part is certainly not dangerous. Excellent views at the top on a clear day. If you have reasonable fitness, allow at least 3 hours return. | ||||

Mt Beerburrum is only a 700 Metre walk, but its a hard 700 Metre's ! The steep incline does not stop until you reach the top, and this little Glasshouse Mountain has made my calf muscles burn harder than other Mountians I've climbed Double its size. It has a concrete path the entire way up to the top. At the summit, there is a lookout, which you can climb via a ladder, to catch the awesome 360 degree view. | ||||

Straight after climbing Mt Beerburrum, I drove to Mt Tinbeerwah to check it out. Surprizingly higher than I expected with fantastic view's over Noosa / Northern Sunshine Coast. From the Carpark its only a walk a few hundred metres long, following an interesting path to an excellent 360 degree lookout. Its worth a look! | ||||

I've climbed Bald Rock twice now, but on this occasion, I went up the Easier Route ( which is basically walking up a well maintained path along the side on the Rock), and then came down the Cliff Face. Along the easier path, there are incredible rock formations which you actually walk through. HUGE granite boulders, giving many great photo opportunities. When you approach the top of Bald Rock, it can give those with height fears some nervous moments, which I witnessed a couple who actually turned back, going no further. There is a series of white lines painted onto the top of the Rock, suggesting the best option to make it to the top. Following this path, you should not have any problems. The view's are amazing on top, and showcase large round boulder's that look as though they could just roll off at any moment. The walk down the cliff face is not dangerous, providing you take it at a careful pace. It would most likely be quite slippery after rainfall, so keep your intended climb of Bald Rock for a Sunny Day. |
