Hit the trail early at 6.00, and completed the walk in just under 90 mins. We did this early to avoid the heat, which we did. It was just starting to heat up when we finished the walk. We took the multi use trail going out and went up around the back of White Rock . This makes the walk about 1 klm longer than sign posted. Enjoyable and convenient for us to do.

Much nicer alternative to the multi use trail. Much more clearer trail now than last time I did it a few years back, must be getting lots of use.

Beautiful views from beyond White Rock and up on the ridge trail. Worth the effort for the views and rich indigenous cultural significance. A very popular and very busy walk with limited parking so try weekdays for the best experience.

Just decided to do a local walk today to stretch the legs. Walked to the Bluff, and then Little White Rock and onto the ridge trail to White Rock. Very enjoyable and a little over 7.5K.

Beautiful beginners hike, with some rock scrambling

Nice walk, not overly challenging but gets you puffing a little on the way up. Nice quick little hike, took about 90 mins for us. We went up via this path and came back via the multi-trail which is a lot more flat and straight. This trail is much more like a bush walk (although the path is defined enough so you won’t get lost). Recommend doing it in the morning or a cloudy day though, not a lot of tree cover so it could get hot.

2.05hrs, 8km full circuit.

Great walk, beautiful day... not too strenuous, good views of Brisbane. Would not want to do on too hot a day.

Long walk before incline of rock take the ridge walk much more Challenging the scrambling was hairy with a 5 and 6 year old but doable

First walk since the restrictions have been lifted. Many other people doing the same thins, as there were people everywhere. Still enjoyable to finally stretch the legs after 8 weeks of lock down.

Lovely little hike, beautiful views and fun scrambles. Took our 6 and 8 year old who found it most enjoyable, some tricky bits near the caves for them but they managed very well for their first go.

Medium hike, enough to get the heart pumping though! Very pretty hike especially when you are walking on the ridge. Take plenty of water

Interesting network of tracks. Take a pic of the map.

Glad to have done it early morning very hot, make sure you take water.rook 1hr 55mins with a few breathers on the way.

I really enjoy this little hike. Unfortunately now being located right next to an estate ALOT of people use the tracks. Can we challenging to find a quiet moment to relax and take it all in.

Nice little morning walk with some good lookouts

A more interesting way to visit White Rock rather than taking the WRT. Lovely views and a bit more shade/breeze in warmer weather.
Can be a little confusing to find the trail head from the Paperbark picnic area as it's the only track not mentioned on the Six Mile Creek Track sign. Veer left where the WRT veers right and you'll find the sign for WRRT a little further along the fire trail on your right.
A straightforward walk with only one small rock scramble which is easier to navigate than actually getting to the top of White Rock itself. The view from the top of White Rock is nice. I really wish people wouldn't feel the need to carve their names into the rock face. Whatever happened to "Take only photos, leave only footprints".

Well worth a visit to White Rock! We did this with our 8 and 9 year olds and it was a great little hike for them. The highlight was definitely climbing up and exploring around White Rock. Views from the top are amazing.
We followed the multi-use track (the "Hikers Track") on the way there, which was hot and dusty and a little monotonous; and we took the Ridge Trail on the way back, which was thoroughly enjoyable and I'd highly recommend it. There's a little bit of rock scrambling required, although not difficult, and the track was easy to follow for the most part - just look for all the footprints in the dirt if you're unsure.
Definitely wouldn't want to tackle this walk during summer, as there is not a lot of shade and even at this time of year we found it really quite hot. Make sure you take plenty of water too. I'm not sure how people can do this walk without taking water with them - I was surprised at the number of people who didn't have any water with them.
Over all, a fantastic hike for the family and well worth it.

Surprisingly easy! Just remember to start early. We took this as our return route and the 10 AM sun was already pretty strong. Can't imagine doing this hike during the summer.
