Ngungun

Track to a place to see it from a published way, with steps to follow

Gazetted name Difficulty: Class 5 -26.89972, 152.93528 Glass House Mountains National Park · National Park mountain

Access verdict · Lawful, nothing to flag · weakest evidence in the chain: official spatial record

Public land — inside Glass House Mountains National Park. A published track reaches it.

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 verdict and its own caveats.

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 Ngungun. 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 inside Glass House Mountains National Park, designated National Park. Official spatial — evidence class

The point falls outside every World Heritage property the state maps.

The rock at the surface is sandstone, mapped as Landsborough Sandstone (RJl) , late triassic - early jurassic in age. The survey describes it as: Lithofeldspathic labile and quartzose sandstone, siltstone, shale, minor coal, ferruginous oolite marker Official spatial — evidence class

The register maps one ecosystem over this ground, each with the share of it the register states.

Where it is

Map

Map of Ngungun and the starts of the 11 published approaches to it, over the parcels, corridors, estate and tracks around them.

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 somewhere to see it from Official spatial — evidence class

Ngungun Summit Track passes 12 m from the recorded point. There is 15 m of climb or drop between the two, read at a 5.0 m contour interval. The contours give the height between them and never which way round it is, so this is a separation and not a descent to plan.

The register signs this way for this place, and it comes within reach of it and stops above or below it — so it is where the walk is meant to end, and what it ends at is a view rather than the feature itself. No approach to it is published from here, though: that is a separate question about who may lawfully cross the ground in between, and the approaches below are where it is answered.

Approaches — one page each 11 published of 144 computed

144 ways in were computed and 11 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.
