Activity itinerary

Glass House Mountains Lookout
  • 15m
The Glass House Mountains, located in the Sunshine Coast Hinterland, offer a breathtaking and unique experience for those seeking a blend of natural beauty and cultural history. The cluster of ancient volcanic peaks, named by Captain James Cook in 1770, captivates visitors with its dramatic landscape and panoramic views. Rich in First Nations heritage, the area holds stories and traditions of the indigenous people. Made of trachyte and rhyolite, the mountains were formed about 25-27 million years ago as molten lava cooled and hardened within the vents of ancient volcanoes. Over time, the softer material surrounding the volcanic plugs eroded, leaving the striking peaks we see today.
McCarthy's Lookout
  • 10m
This lookout is located in Jinibara Country in Maleny. The vistas allow you to soak up the views of the Glass House Mountains and surrounding countryside. The views are nothing short of spectacular and allow you to see the majestic Blackall Range and Moreton Bay. As you gaze upon the panoramic views, you'll be captivated by the lush rolling hills, dense forests, and the mesmerising silhouettes of the volcanic peaks in the distance.

Gerrard's Lookout, perched high on the Blackall Range in the Sunshine Coast hinterland, offers a truly awe-inspiring vantage point to appreciate the vast expanse of the region's picturesque landscape.
