Took the kids up to Bunya Mt for the weekend, never been there before and was pleasantly surprised. Beautiful pace and so close to Brisbane, a bit cold though but well worth it. Cheers MickImage Could Not Be FoundImage Could Not Be Found

Looks like a nice spot. Have thought of going there a few times, but had heard it is not suitable for caravans, although can see some in the background.
What was the actual location of that photo Michael/Chris? I was thinking of going up that way to miss the Toowoomba Range on the way out to Roma, how were the roads/hills?

Hi Ken, The photo with the vans in the background was at Cooyar about a half hour drive from the Bunya Mt and about 10 deg warmer. The road is much steeper and alot more twisty than the Toowoomba range so suitable for a van. Still worth having a look but maybe leave your van at Cooyar. Don't forget the thermals. Cheers Mick

I can put in a vote for being a nice spot as we have been catching up with my wifes family every year for 8 or 9 years now and still haven't got tired of the cooler weather and lovely green country side, it's not unusal to get fogged in untill 10am in the middle of January.

We stay at "Rice's log cabins" it is very well priced for what you get and only a short walk (down a steep hill) to the bush trails. I have no affiliation with them just a happy camper.

Michael and Chris are the walking trails open again? last time we were there was when all the floods were on and they closed the mountain to all holiday people a couple of days after we arrived.

Well worth a look

regards

Trev 6,
Yes the walking trails were open ( I wasn't aware they were closed). We will be back for another look at a later date as it's only a few hours from Brisbane. Makes a great weekender. Cheers Mick
