Approach
Note: Track currently closed by rockfall
From Beerwah carpark, take the main trail past the picnic area and follow the trail up to the base of the route.
Route Description
The route commences with it's most difficult section - particularly if the rock is wet. A smooth 45 degree slab ascends for about 30m followed by a 50 - 60 degree scramble up nice easy rock for a further 50m. The route then becomes more or less a steep trail to the base of a cliff known as the "Organ Pipes." Traverse right through the powdery volcanic dust until you reach the well defined trail up the north west ridgeline to the summit.
Around three hours return trip from the carpark with time to admire the views and take photos.
Essential Gear
No technical gear required. Good hiking footwear essential. A pair of rock slippers in your pack would speed up some slab sections.
There is no fresh water on the route. I recommend carrying at least 1 litre of water.
