Mount Beerwah Guided Climb (dates on request)

This activity is available to book from April to October each year.

For millennia, the iconic shapes of the Glasshouse Mountains have captured imaginations, the mother figure of them all is Mount Beerwah.

Mount Beerwah at 556m high is the tallest mountain in the Glasshouse Mountains group. It is  place of great historical importance to ancient and modern people alike, a mountain with an undeniably magnetic appeal. If you’re one of many who’ve felt the tug of this striking peak, maybe it’s time to become part of the Beerwah story.

Mount Beerwah is perhaps the most imposing rock climbing destination in the Glasshouse Mountains. It houses a massive variety of climbs, from short, punchy lines to long, easy scrambles and everything in between. This means that there is literally something for everyone – whether it’s your first time outside of the gym or you’re an experienced climber looking for a new challenge, Mount Beerwah has something for you. Our qualified guides will tailor the experience to suit your needs, but here are some of the fantastic options available (ability dependent):

OUR GUIDES

Our awesome guides are highly trained, fully accredited, and heaps of fun! They’ll teach you everything you need to know, as well as take care of the safety procedures and provide all the gear, including harness, helmet, climbing shoes, and all other technical equipment.

WHAT TO BRING

Although your guide will provide all the safety gear, you’ll still need to bring a few bits and pieces, including:

• Non-restrictive clothing. Check the weather forecast to get an idea of the conditions, but remember that the summit is exposed and weather can change quickly, so a light jacket or wind jacket can be handy

• Enclosed footwear with grip such as hiking boots or runners, sturdy enough to handle a rough trail

• A backpack big enough to carry all your gear plus some of the required safety equipment (e.g. ropes)

• 2-3 litres of water, hat, insect repellent, sunscreen, sunglasses

• If you have some climbing gear, bring it along so your guide can check it out and let you know if it’s good to go

• Your own food and snacks, full of energy to keep you happy and psyched!

FITNESS REQUIREMENTS

You’ll need a moderate level of fitness for this activity. To access the climbing areas, a hike of about 30 minutes is required, often along steep and uneven trails. You’ll also require some prior climbing experience, whether in the gym or outdoors. Any Mount Beerwah climb involves a long day on the wall with a decent amount of mileage.
