A reasonably straight forward walk up a lesser known peak nestled between Mt Barney, Mt Maroon and Mt May.

Travel south from Rathdowney on the Mount Lindesay Highway and turn right onto the Boonah-Rathdowney Road (R93). Turn left down Upper Logan Road and right onto Seidenspinner Road. Follow that road for 1.5kms, then turn left down a dirt road (Drynans Hut Road) where you will eventually come to a gate. You can either park here or continue down further (making sure to close the gate behind you) until you get to a Private Property gate (photo in description). It appears that so long as you don't go past this 2nd gate, you are not crossing private property, and there is space to park here without blocking the gate.
From the parking area, continue along the 4wd track (Not the driveway leading into private property). You will cross Mount Barney Creek and then around 30 meters later you will see trees on your left with red and white tape. Get off the 4wd track and head up to the left until you reach the top of the ridge (this part is pretty well trackless). Once you reach the top of the ridge you should be able to see the river below and a side profile of Mt Barney. From here it's just a matter of following the ridge to the top of the peak - the track becomes more pronounced the further you go. Along the way, and at the top you will get fantastic views of Barney, May and Maroon.
