Climbing Mount Coolum.

Awesome views on the top of Mount Coolum! It's a short climb (only half an hour) but it was a good hike due to steep steps near the top of the summit. There were interesting rock formations and fauna on the way as well.

it's a relatively steep half hour climb up, but the views are worth it. Stone steps first half of the climb, then natural rock as you get higher. Views north to south of the Sunshine Coast.
