Glass House Mountains Lookout

Glass House Woodford Road, Beerburrum, 4517, Queensland

The Glass House Mountains, located in the Sunshine Coast Hinterland, offer a breathtaking and unique experience for those seeking a blend of natural beauty and cultural history. The cluster of ancient volcanic peaks, named by Captain James Cook in 1770, captivates visitors with its dramatic landscape and panoramic views. Rich in First Nations heritage, the area holds stories and traditions of the indigenous people. Made of trachyte and rhyolite, the mountains were formed about 25-27 million years ago as molten lava cooled and hardened within the vents of ancient volcanoes. Over time, the softer material surrounding the volcanic plugs eroded, leaving the striking peaks we see today.
