Glass House Mountains Qld 4518
The Glass House Mountains are located 70 km n-e of Brisbane in the Sunshine Coast hinterland. Named by Capt Cook in 1770, this national park is a series of volcanic plugs which formed over 25 million years ago playing an important role in Aboriginal beliefs and traditions. The highest peak is Mt Beerwah (555 m), followed by Mt Coonowrin (377 m), Mt Tibrogargan (364 m) & Mt Ngungan (253 m) and all offer excellent bushwalking and abseiling opportunities. Mt Beerwah was World Heritage-listed in 2006 and although very popular, the steep climb is an arduous one. Near the small township of Glass House Mountains are Main Lookout and Mt Beerburrum Lookout.  Other lookouts include Wildhorse Mountain, Stony Creek & Coochin Creek Forest. Today the surrounding areas produce tropical fruits, vegetables, macadamias & tobacco.
