Trachyte and Tibrogargan Circuit

Glass House Mountains National Park
 

A nice, easy walk with nothing too strenuous. Leading from the car park, begin the Tibrogargan Circuit. At the first fork take a right (sign post and map at the fork). The circuit winds through open eucalypti, casuarina and native flora alongside Mount Tibrogargan and Mount Tibberoowuccum. Signage along the track provide information about the area's flora and fauna. The trail then ascends to the Jack Ferris lookout which is atop Trachyte Ridge and affords walkers a panoramic view of surrounding peaks and pine forest plantation. Interestingly, the Glasshouse Mountains themselves are volcanic plugs formed largely of rhyolite and trachyte which remain after the surrounding sandstone eroded over 25 million years.

Mt Warnilla

Nuga Nuga National Park
 

The summit of Mt Warnilla gives the absolute best views of the Arcadia Valley and especially of Lake Nuga Nuga. No trail or markings, entire walk is trailblazing up the foothills and finally scrambling to the summit.
Much of the summit is cliff-faced and unclimbable without lead-roping equipment/experience, I found a crevice to boulder-climb up to the end and find a way to the plateau at the top.
It's easy enough to get to the cliffside and the views from there are stunning too, but if you have the guff to get to the peak the 360 degree views from the plateau are unbeatable.
