This is a nice loop of Toohey Forest Park. Beautiful bushland, but not really fond of the paved path. I guess it does support erosion control though. Otherwise, great ecosystems throughout, going from the dry Eucalypt forest, down to the riparian system at lower elevation.
Great native flora and fauna everywhere.

With multiple entrances to the reserve, it's your choice if you want a long or short walk either way there will be steep gradients. Once reaching the top of Mt Wongawallan you can find a deep hole, (assumed to be an old mine shaft) and a bit beyond that a wonderful lookout looking towards the Gold Coast Skyline.

An off track adventure up a mountain that barley anyone has heard of and even fewer have attempted. Navigation skills are a must, be prepared to spend copious amounts of time in long grass and spider webs.
