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.

Trachyte Circuit
Glass House Mountains National Park
This circuit leads through open woodland and heathland linking Mount Tibrogargan and Mount Tibberoowuccum. Interpretive signs along the track provide details of the area's special features. The Jack Ferris lookout, on Trachyte Ridge, allows for good views of the surrounding peaks. This ridge owes its name to a type of volcanic rock which forms many of the Glass House Mountains peaks.

Mount Cooee
Glass House Mountains National Park
At just 167m, this is probably the least climbed and one of the least known mountains in the area, especially as it is overshadowed by Mount Tibrogargan immediately to the west.

Coombabah Lakelands Conservation Area
Coombabah Lakelands Conservation Area
There is no direct track, just a heap of different paths, where you can wonder through the conservation area spotting all sorts of wildlife. Especially kangaroos, that are slowly becoming more used to humans, so you can get some really nice photos of some semi wild kangaroos. Otherwise there are koalas and bird life also to enjoy.
