Melichrus Trail (Plunkett Conservation Park)

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.

Moreton Terrace Park

Lovely flat walk long boardwalk and sandy track taking around 1.5 hours return, through mangroves and out to Caboolture river mouth. Broad views across Moreton Bay, shady and easy. At the board walk end cross the dog off-leash area and you see the sandy path begin, follow your walk through the mangroves at high tide or take the beach, however, the track remains in the mangroves for the most. You end at the point of the Caboolture River.

Mount Moon

Mount Moon near Mount Alford is on private property (you can ask for permission to climb it) near Mt Greville. I took the difficult (not defined) route up, through lots of lantana (as tall as myself) in which I got severely tangled. Lots of scratches to show for it at the end. My first really hard bushwalk.
