Hi All, 
Our next outing is on Saturday June 3rd at 8.00am, to be lead by John Birbeck.This walk will be an introduction to one of the Council’s new reserves at Scarffe Road Glenview. This reserve is fenced off and not open to the public, it includes a large quarried lake including adjoining maintenance roadways and is surrounded by riparian rainforest, it also adjoins existing Mooloolah River Esplanade Reserves.
The entrance gates are located at the end of Scarffe Road before the bridge (private property), there is plenty of parking along Scarffe Road.
To get there:
Enter Mooloolah Connection Road off Steve Irwin Way, then enter Scarffe Road off Mooloolah Connection Road at Glenview. If you have reached Stevens Road you have gone 300 metres too far. Public toilets are located about 1.3 kilometres down Mooloolah Connection Road at Ewen Maddock Dam Reserve.
