Mount Coolum
(Sunshine Coast)My sons aged 5yrs and 7yrs have climbed mt Coolum twice. it's beautiful on a clear day but no seating on the way up. Nice steady climb until you get nearer the top and it becomes a little steep and rocky. Took us about 45mins max

Completed this walk lunch time today. Easy walk and very enjoyable. I am going to try and run the climb in two weeks time with my training partner. Keep you posted.Linda on 9 Oct, 2011
Easy walk with fantastic views at the top of the ocean on one side and mountains on the other. Highly recommended.jen on 25 Sep, 2011

A great quick walk to get the blood pumping... spectacular view even if it highlights the gradual infection of development over the coast...asterope on Jun, 2011

I have never seen so many good looking fit people jogging up a mountain before. If you like a bushwalk with traffic this is for you !PETER STOREY on 29 Sep, 2010

An excellent afternoon walk, bit wet and slippery. Great Sunset when the clouds parted.Steven Pynor on 14 Jun, 2008
Short but reasonably tough walk. Hot on the day I did it and fairly exposed, not much shade. Excellent views from the top.
