2019-05-25 Illinbah Circuit

Details: Created: Sunday, 26 May 2019 13:40; Written by Colin Bridge

Walkers: Colin (leader), Werner, Christine D, John, Pamela S, Cassie, Melanie, Bruce

Distance: 18.8k

A clear, bright, cool day. Perfect for an attack on Illinbah Circuit, one we haven't done since 2014 due to closures.

A slow first half as we gingerly navigated all the Coomera River crossings. We managed to get through unscathed and dry with no-one falling in.

All agreed that this is a wonderful walk and deserves a place on the calendar every year - Colin

Distance: 6.7k

A clear, bright, warm day. Perfect for an ascent up Mt Maroon and perfect for 360 degree vistas of the mighty Moogerah Peaks from the summit.

We quickly found out that to get to the caves would have to be left to a specific walk in the future. We saw clear glimpses of them on the way in.

A popular spot now as we saw dozens of walkers and a couple of climbers who had just completed the ascent.

Another fabulous walk that had everything. We didn't find or way to Spicer's Peak, but we know where we went wrong.

Distance: 13.3k

A fabulous walk that had everything. Must go on the calendar as a regular walk for us. Beautiful company and Pamela Davis said, lots of laughs and fun.

This was a walk not to be missed and all thoroughly enjoyed the variety of scenery, the rain showers and the bush bashing requiring navigation skills.

Another wonderful day of bushwalking. Thanks to Paul Biggs, our leader for the day, and to the rest of the group for your good company, conversation and encouragement. We are so lucky to live in such a beautiful part of the world - Christine De Brito.

Cedar Creek gets a boost

Cedar Creek section of Tamborine National Park is popular destination and has one of the highest visitation rates of any national park in south east Queensland. It has also been in the news with parking not being adequate for the number of visitors. While most visitors cannot wait to get to the pools at the bottom of the waterfall, some visitors come to have a quiet picnic and take in the sounds and smells of the forest. Their visit recharges their feeling of wellbeing and they leave with great memories of Cedar Creek.
