A good loop option in the Nerang National Park. Starting at Brookfield Court Reserve, head in to the Billabirra Break Fireroad, turning left (straight on) when you hit it. Follow this until the next major junction where you turn left and then stay on this trail (bearing right at about 2km).

You'll join Nerang State Forest Walk at around 3km, and then leave this by bearing right at approx 3.7km, and then right again at 4.5km.

Another right approximately 6.2km in brings you close to the residential area again, and this trail soon links back on to Nerang State Forest Walk where you'll turn left, and then right soon after.

This trail will now take you along Centre Road Fireroad and you'll turn right at the Trail and Fire Break Intersection, onto Yarrayne Break Fireroad. This soon links back onto Billabirra Break Fireroad, where after approximately 12km, you'll be back to the Brookfield Court Reserve.

As a loop, you could start this anywhere on the route and do it in either direction.

If you know of any public toilets near the trail start or on the route, please login and then let us know so we can update this section.

The first few 100 metres to the gate is the only single track running. The rest is open forest trails. Great to be amongst it. The wildlife is noisy and follows you throughout the trail. Stoked to have WT options in Aus!!
