It is the last remnants of the great rainforest which used to cover the area of Rocklea and Brisbane. It was the home of aboriginal people, and was part of the road to the Bunya Mountains. A short drive out of Rocklea into the countryside reveals a wealth of walking and biking trails that vary from mild to very challenging. The trails take in all types of terrain, around lakes, through valleys, and into more remote country that is typical to Australia.
