Mount Wunburra

Lawful route land the public may cross — no track, you navigate it

Gazetted name A — provenance grade A: Gazetted / register -28.14344, 153.26657 mountain
  • A Gazetted / register — The fact is itself a statutory record.
  • B Official spatial record — Read from a maintained government layer.
  • C Statutory inference — Law applied to B-grade records; not ground-truthed.
  • D Community record — Community sources; labelled, never blended into A–C.

Access verdict · tier 1 of 4 · confidence B (official spatial record, the weakest grade in the chain)

Public land. No published track reaches it — the lawful ground to it is a chain of parcels.

Being at this point is lawful on the records below. Getting there is a separate question, answered route by route — and each route carries its own tier and its own caveats.

  1. 1 · Lawful, nothing to flag Every leg is ground the public may cross, and nothing about the chain needs a warning. Whether a built track runs along it is said separately. This page is here.
  2. 2 · Lawful, with caveats A lawful chain with at least one thing about it that has to be said first.
  3. 3 · Unconfirmed No lawful chain could be established from the public record. No route published.
  4. 4 · No lawful route Enclosed by land the public has no right to cross. No route published.

On-ground signage and temporary closures override this page. Always.

What this place is A definition, then the record

A mountain — high ground rising clearly above what surrounds it, named by the register at a single coordinate somewhere on its high ground. Where the top of a mountain is, exactly, is not something a single coordinate settles, and whether the last of the climb can be walked is not something any register records.

No watercourse the register names runs within range of Mount Wunburra. The layer maps far more creeks than it has ever named, so that is a gap in the record rather than dry ground.

The point falls outside every protected-area estate in the snapshot.

On the record — what the registers actually say Dataset versions in the footer

What each register holds about this place
Claim What the record says Evidence

Tenure Resolved to Freehold, recorded as "Freehold". B — provenance grade B: Official spatial record
Parcel 4RP201058 B — provenance grade B: Official spatial record
Council area The register files this place under Gold Coast City. That is the authority's own filing of the place, not a boundary this site tested the point against. B — provenance grade B: Official spatial record
Estate This point falls outside every protected-area estate polygon in the snapshot.
Watercourse No named watercourse in the snapshot runs within range of this point. The layer maps many creeks it has never named.
Feature Recorded as a mountain in the source layer; no terrain rule was needed to find it. B — provenance grade B: Official spatial record

Where it is

Map

Context map for Mount Wunburra: parcels, corridors, estate and tracks around the point.

Every figure the map would draw — parcel references, distances, bearings and the crossing gap — is written out in full on this page, so nothing is only visible on the map. If the map does not load, nothing has been lost.

Is there a track to it Measured in plan and in section

The way reaches this place B — provenance grade B: Official spatial record

Mt Wunburra Break passes 3 m from the recorded point. The gap crosses no contour, which is as level as this layer can evidence — not a survey saying the ground is flat.

Both gaps are small enough that the way is a way to this place, not merely one near it.

Approaches — one page each 7 published of 21 computed

21 ways in were computed and 7 are published here. The rest either reach the same ground from a few hundred metres away — the same drive and the same walk — or reach no lawful chain at all, which is only worth saying when nothing else does.

Before you go Published alerts as at the snapshot date in the footer

No alert was published for this area in the snapshot this page was built from. That is not the same as "open": many managing authorities publish no machine-readable status at all, so an absence of alerts is an absence of information.

On Country

Registered Aboriginal cultural heritage party: Gold Coast Native Title Group — this point falls inside the registered party boundary. B — provenance grade B: Official spatial record

A cultural heritage party boundary and a native title claim are different legal things. This page never conflates them, and it publishes neither as a permission.

All land and waters in Queensland carry a duty of care under s.23 of the Aboriginal Cultural Heritage Act 2003 (Qld) — including here. Cultural heritage site locations are restricted by law (ss.38–46), deliberately, for site protection. This site holds party boundaries only and will never republish site locations. Check the public register and, where in doubt, seek guidance from the Aboriginal party for the area.

Searching a register does not of itself satisfy the duty of care.

Rules here — derived from tenure no estate designation resolved

Conduct rules follow from tenure and the legislation that governs it. Nothing specific is inferred here, which means you should read the signs, not that no rules apply.

Statutes relied on: Nature Conservation Act 1992 (Qld) and its regulations for protected estate; Water Act 2000 (Qld) s.21 for watercourse beds; Aboriginal Cultural Heritage Act 2003 (Qld) ss.23 and 38–46 for the duty of care and for why site locations are never republished here.

What this page will never do

  • No user pins

    Every fact here traces to a government layer or a statute and carries a grade, A to C. Community names are quarantined at grade D and labelled as such. Nothing on this page was dropped on a map by a stranger.

  • No invented lawfulness

    Where tenure cannot be confirmed from the public record, the page says so instead of endorsing the route or quietly hiding it. Where no lawful corridor exists at all, none is published — the refusal is the answer.

  • No safety pretence

    A tier is a tenure verdict, not a difficulty or safety rating. Unmanaged terrain, cliffs and flash flooding are not in the cadastre. The engine reads land records, not the weather.
