This is where the Glasshouse Mountains Parkrun is held on a Saturday morning. It's a lovely hiking area too that includes rainforest and bush surroundings. There's some great steep hills and a couple of different tracks adjoining to make your hike longer if you desire.
NOTE: these tracks have been closed from 20 December 2024 due to a significant weather event. Correct as of 5 January 2024.

Moderate climb on well defined vehicle track. Some good views over Samford Valley toward Mt Nebo. Traverses up ridge line enjoying any breeze that's going, also making it a reasonable summer walk/climb, if there's a decent breeze. Very accessible from Brisbane.

Bunya Crossing Reserve
There are several easy short dog-friendly walks in the area (about 2kms in total). There is a lovely shaded picnic area and a swimming hole with rope swing. It is not so much a picturesque walk but a good place to take the family for a relaxing picnic and to take your dog for a stroll and swim. Gates close at sunset.

Bunyaville Track
This track leaves from the northern end of the day-use area and leads through open eucalyptus forest to the southern end of the day-use area. You may be lucky enough to see a carpet python basking in the sun or a large grass-yellow butterfly Eurema hecabe flutter by. Watch and listen for the pied currawong and laughing kookaburra.

A nice loop along the creeks, falls and pools. Some hard steps requiring a little bit of easy climbing, sometimes impressive, especially when going down.

Cedar Creek Falls
Not to be confused with Cedar Creek at Mount Tambourine, this spot is located approximately 20 minutes from the village of Samford on Brisbane’s north side.
To access Cedar Creek, begin at Samford and drive north along Mount Samson Road, then turn left into Cedar Creek Road.
This is a great place to take a dip and cool off in summer or soak up the sun on a large rock in winter. Kids will also be kept busy with exploring the local surrounds.
There are no established bushwalking paths in the area, so best to stay near the creek.

Chermside Hills, Raven St Reserve, and Milne Hill Circuit
A surprisingly diverse walk in the heart of the 'burbs' with the ability to totally lose oneself from the hectic pace of modern life, the sounds of traffic, the visual pollution of human settlement. On the two times I have done this walk I have come across a mob of wallabies in different sections of the walk.
