Starting from Clear Mountain Road, Cashmere, this walk takes you on a circuit in the southeastern parts of Clear Mountain Conservation Park, crossing One Mile Creek(might be dry) twice along the way. With its short but steep elevation changes, this track will make you feel your quads and calves surrounded in a nice remote setting. Although it feels remote, it’s actually quite close to central Brisbane. The woodland is home to many interesting bird species along with some cute koalas, so keep an eye out on treetops. There may be loose shale on the track so wear some grippy shoes to stay safe. Signage along the way appears to be minimal, prepare accordingly. Let us begin by acknowledging the Traditional Custodians of the land on which we travel today, and pay our respects to their Elders past and present.
Before you start any bushwalk ensure you;
• Tell someone you trust where you are going and what to do if you are overdue
• Have adequate equipment, supplies, skills & knowledge for the whole journey
• Consider the impact of weather forecasts, park/track closures & fire dangers
• Can respond to emergencies & call for help at any point
• Are healthy and fit enough for this journey
If not, change plans and stay safe. It is okay to delay and ask people for help.
Turn right onto Clear Mountain Road and drive for another 1.2 km
