Information

At 572m and 172 hectares, is the most popular peak of the ranges and takes approximately an hour to summit. It has significant scenic and geological values and climbers will discover a colony of bats in a small cave and look out for the giant St Andrews spiders near the summit. Once there you will experience a 360° view of the surrounding farmland and National Park offering some of the most unique panoramas in Queensland. The slope below its bare volcanic peak carries an open scrub giving way to open grassland and grassy Eucalyptus orgadophila woodland (Butler and Fensham 2008).
Peak Access: Please note this peak is under grazing lease. Access is by walking only from the Peak Downs Highway. Visitors can access the park to climb the peak via fire control lines. Queensland Parks and Wildlife Services in Clermont can provide advice on peak access and walking trails as walking trails are unmarked.

Climbing the peaks is not recommended without advice from the local Queensland Parks and Wildlife Office. Protective clothing and plenty of water is recommended to guard against the bush and heat. For more information, please contact Queensland Parks and Wildlife on (07) 4983 1211.

The Peak Range National Park and its peaks have no facilities. Fires are strictly prohibited. Please ensure you are environmentally conscious by removing all rubbish. Camping is prohibited at all peaks.
