Paddy's Falls (Mt Barney National Park) |

Not sure why more people are not doing this walk. Great variety of scenery and the waterfall is quite spectacular when the water is flowing. Walked up fire trail to the top of the waterfall, then scrambled down the river right wall. There is a faint footpad visible from the top of the waterfall to the spot to start scrambling / climbing down. Nice sized pool at the base of the falls to have a swim and break for lunch. Rock hopped down the creak to rejoin the fire trail and walk back out. Not as much water as lower portals but defiantly more secluded, only saw one other group on trail in the morning. | ||||

Started walk from leafy land trailhead. Walked circuit clockwise, over two days. Camping at thilba Thalia walkers camp. Easy to follow trails, with a good diversity of views from the ridge-line lookouts to rainforest in the gully. Facility's at the campsites where great.

Gold Creek Reservoir (South East Queensland) |

Walked a slightly longer route. Started walk anti clockwise around the reservoir on Gold creek road, gravel road leading uphill underneath powerlines. Then onto south boundary road, take black cockatoo track back down to gold creek circuit track. It's easy to miss the entrance to black cockatoo track. Definitely worth the extra distance to walk down black cockatoo track. At the end link back with cold creek circuit track and follow back to carpark. |

Walked in from South boundary road, then onto Township Break. Stopped for lunch at the creek on Township break and explored the creek. Was a challenging walk along township break. recommend walking poles. Camp was nice on top of the ridge. Good to have a table and shelter to use. Walked out the next day along light line road, onto forestry road (paved road), the used taylors break to get onto double break. Nice uphill climb to the mount Nebo waste transfer station. To do this loop does require a car shuttle. Nice loop walk for a camping weekend away close to Brisbane |
