Join us on our next outing on the SOMERSET CIRCUIT TRAIL in the Mt Mee / D’Aguilar Range (shorter optional walks are also on offer).

This is a 13km circuit walk regarded as one of the best walks in the greater Brisbane area starting out from ‘the Gantry’ on Sellin Road, a reminder of the logging industry in the past. Walkers are rewarded with a great mixture of open eucalypt forests, some pine forests and pockets of rainforest and water holes and then a halfway lunch stop featuring a wonderful view of Somerset and Wivenhoe Dams. This is a 4 hour trail requiring a moderate level of fitness over a gradual incline though no steep slopes. For those with a limited ability, a shorter 30 min walk through Piccabeen Palms is on offer plus an optional short drive down to Bulls Falls.

Car pooling is recommended and drivers from Stafford should allow a minimum of 1 hour to travel to Mount Mee via Dayboro. This is a very pretty drive all the way up to the L.H. turn off onto Sellin Road and then a 5km drive down to the National Park and car park area opposite the Gantry. Please arrive by 9.00am for morning tea and a briefing before setting off on our walks. Also wear good walking boots/shoes, a hat, sunscreen and insect repellent (can be leeches in the forest) and bring water, morning tea, lunch, rain jacket and light jumper.
