Hike Overview
Join us for a refreshing morning outdoors as we walk, swim, and enjoy God’s creation together. It’s a chance to slow down, connect, encourage one another, and share life in community.
We’ll begin our morning together at the Binna Burra lower day‑use area, descending a long series of steep rock steps (around 200 in total). As we move from open forest into lush rainforest, we’ll pass cliffs of volcanic ash (tuff) and eventually reach the valley floor beside the Coomera River. The trail leads us to the peaceful Gwongoorool pool, a beautiful spot to pause, cool off, and enjoy God’s creation.

The return climb is steep and will get the heart rate up, but we’ll take it at a steady, supportive pace.

After the hike, we’ll head to the Binna Burra Tea House for food and fellowship a chance to rest, share stories, and enjoy community.

Finish: Approximately 1:00pm
