Mount Perry Summit Walk
Mt Perry. The walk up to the tree line is the hardest part. About 1km , constantly going up, in the sun and warmth of the morning really takes it out of you. The track through the trees and up to the peak is quite a good one and anyone who enjoys a good bush walk should have no problem reaching the peak. Once there the views are fantastic.

Mt Woowoonga
A rough trail leads through thick vine forest to the lookout before opening up into open hoop pine forest with some vine forest sections in the understory. Towering hoop pines greet hikers at the summit of Mt Woowoonga. A high level of fitness is required to make the final ascent to the summit as it is a steep and strenuous climb suitable for experienced bushwalkers only.

The Palms Circuit
Tucked away in the hills east of Cooyar, The Palms National Park is a gem worth making an effort to visit. Small in size, but big in nature, this tiny patch of remnant subtropical rainforest is filled with impressive piccabeen palms (Archontophoenix cunninghamiana) clinging to a waterlogged depression, towering fig trees and a rich suite of birdlife. It is also home to a colony of grey-headed flying foxes.
Officially marked as Grade 3/Medium difficulty (includes natural stairs, a narrow boardwalk + uneven or slippery surfaces), this walk is easily manageable for most ages and fitness levels.

Vera Scarth-Johnson Wild Flower Reserve
A short walk through Banksia trees and alongside salt flats. The walking track splits in two not far from the car park and if you follow that in a loop you get this walk. There is another one way walking track that heads towards the salt flats of the Elliott River.

Woodgate Banksia Walking Track
A 200m paved surface leads from the entrance of the park to the boardwalk. The boardwalk is 400m in distance making a round trip from the park entrance and back about 1.4 km. The walking track varied from hard pressed dirt and grass, to quite soft sandy soil but in general was very well maintained and flat. Prams with pump-up tyres and bikes would both cope well on this track. The full circuit is 5.2km and takes about 2 hours to complete. The scenery was varied from large cabbage palms and ferns to forests of eucalypts and banksias.

Braithwaites Lookout
A walk up to Boat Mountain's first lookout with views towards Murgon, through healthy, partly-shaded bushland.
While this is a short and easy to follow track, the walk begins with a long staircase (approx. 190 steps), making this a Grade 3-4 track.
