The area of the Glasshouse Mountains was probably once quite forested. Matthew Flinders climbed Beerburrum in 1798 and was the first European to do so. He surveyed the valleys below.
There are vast cleared areas now full of the most productive plantations - macadamia trees, passion fruit and pineapple, coffee and vegetables as well.
The Massive Macadamia trees
Coffee bushes
Dragon fruit plantations
Best of all was being at the top of Beerburrum and seeing this flock of yellow tailed black cockatoos.
