Why it's worth checking out
Wild Horse Mountain Scenic Lookout sits atop one of the peaks on the edge of the Glass House Mountains, near Beerburrum in the Sunshine Coast hinterland. Reached by a short but steep sealed walking track up to a former fire-spotting tower, it rewards the climb with a spectacular 360-degree panorama over the iconic volcanic peaks, the coast and the surrounding country.
The appeal is that big payoff for a relatively quick effort: sweeping views in every direction, taking in the dramatic Glass House Mountains, the Sunshine Coast and the hinterland beyond. It's a popular, accessible spot for a scenic walk and an unforgettable outlook, easily combined with exploring the wider Glass House Mountains region.
With a 4.7 rating from more than 1,000 reviews, it's a firmly established favourite. The lookout is free, but the walk up is short and steep and conditions can be hot and exposed, with the views depending on the weather, so it's worth checking conditions before you go — and taking water, sun protection and decent footwear, and allowing time to enjoy the panorama at the top.
