South East Queensland
This walk takes you through fairly open bushland, up an incline to a conglomerate rock outcrop with views of the Cedar Creek Valley.The paths in this reserve are mostly wide enough to fit a ranger's car but are quite rocky and steep in some places. You are able to cycle, horseride and walk your dog here (but no motorbikes).

A challenging track to the summit of Mt Blaine. The trail consists of steep inclines and rock scrambling. The summit provides 360 degree view over Brisbane, Ipswich and the scenic rim and a great view of Flinders Peak. The track goes up the northern side, over the summit and back down the southern side. High level of fitness, off track experience, scrambling experience and solid boots are all recommended. Do not attempt this climb if you have knee problems, nervous conditions or vertigo.

Mount Bippo Penbean
North Stradbroke Island - Minjeeribah
This is a relatively easy track on sand, although the last section up to the top of the viewing platform is quite steep and will get the heart rate up. It provides a good view over the National Park parts of the island and out towards the bay. Apparently on very clear days you can also see to NSW, the Sunshine coast and the Border Ranges. There are lots of banksias and grasstrees. Recommend that people do this in the early morning or late afternoon. Those scared of spiders should avoid as there are lots of spider webs across the pathway and it is difficult to see them in some light.
Signs say to allow 2 hours return. I completed this in 1 hour 35 minutes with a moderate fitness level.
This is pronounced Bib-boo bee-yan, meaning mountainous country in Jandai language (Quandamooka)

Melichrus Trail (Plunkett Conservation Park)
South East Queensland
A short walk on relatively flat gradients through open forest with a mixture of swamp box, ironbark and spotted gum. The unusual soil type in this area promotes short grasses and sedge's that give a parkland type appearance. Keep an eye out for the plant Melichrus adpressus, a spiky native heath species that grows in the local area. This area is known for a good diversity of bird species best heard or seen early morning or late afternoon.

Red Beach to Woorim
Moreton Island National Park
This is a walk along the beach from the car park at Red Beach Bribie Island to the patrolled surf beach at Woorim. It's best to time your walk around low tide as at high tide the water comes right up to the trees in some places. Also, after significant rain there can be run-off from the island causing water courses that will need to be crossed - Not really a problem unless you don't want to get your feet wet. I've only marked the difficulty level as medium due to the un-certainty of the conditions, but generally it's a pretty easy walk if you stay on hard sand. If you're looking at a work-out, maybe walk on the soft sand and then the difficulty would definitely be harder. If you decide to do a return walk, you can pick up something to eat or drink at Woorim before heading back.
