Starting from Maiala Section of D'Aguilar National Park day use area, walked down Mount Glorious Road to the south for about 300 m to the gate at the junction with Joyners Ridge Road.

Turn right onto England Creek Road and descend to a creek, then ascend a ridge before descending to England Creek. Follow the road along England Creek to a (new) concrete causeway 5 km from the road junction, and the England Creek Campsite.

Mt Miketeebumulgrai (Glass House Mountains National Park) |

1.2km return 75 mins |

Started from the main QPWS sign - Glasshouse Mountains National Park Miketeebumulgrai section and followed the water worn trail up to the western side of the quarry. Then contoured westerly finding the line of least resistance to ascend the mountain. Lot of tree fall at the bottom slowing progress, but once the slope was reached, long grass in open forest with some rock slabs, and hidden stones and boulders. A cairn is on the summit, with good breaks in the trees providing good views to the north. | ||||

From the car park walked through the gate and followed the fire management trail to a fork. Took the right track which ascended gradually to an open slab. The track continued up steeply to a cliff face then followed the base of the cliff to the right before ascending a ramp to a ridge. Turn right at this ridge and follow to the summit. Return via same route.Note on day of walk it was noticed that a flood of 1 metre deep at the National Park sign had been through the area and was fast flowing judging by the appearance of the vegetation. | ||||
