Mountain Adventures in the D'Aguilar Range

Crisp mountain air only 45 minutes from the CBD.

Overview

Mt Coot-tha isn't Brisbane's only lofty peak. D'Aguilar Range's Mount Nebo and Mount Glorious may be a 45-minute to an hour venture by car, but you'll still be in Brissie. Make a full day of the trek, because there's plenty to keep you occupied. Take a bushwalk on your first stop at Mount Nebo, wander through the tiny township and visit the Walkabout Creek Discovery Centre for a coffee and a glimpse of some local wildlife. Then, set your sights up, and make the climb through Mount Glorious' Rainforest Circuit walk. While Mount Nebo is 550 metres above sea level, this mount reaches 680 metres — but never fear, the walk through the rainforest is scenic but a low-intensity affair. Post hike, drop by the Elm Haus café for a much-deserved German bite and a Devonshire tea.
