Yaddamun Trail, QLD

The Yaddamun Trail forms part of the White Rock - Spring Mountain Conservation Estate managed by Ipswich City Council, and is accessed from the Paperbark Flats Picnic Area off School Road in White Rock, just south-west of Ipswich.

The Estate is over 2500 hectares in size and features the rocky outcrops of White Rock and Spring Mountain located within a large swathe of regionally significant bushland supporting some of the highest natural and conservation values in the region.

The estate contains 624 flora and 159 fauna species as well as habitat for five threatened flora and three fauna species. It also supports three endangered vegetation types and functions as the headwaters of seven major waterways.

The Yaddamun Trail contains some steep inclines and rough surfaces. It crosses the northern section of the estate giving spectacular glimpses of Ipswich, Brisbane City and towards Moreton Bay.

While walking and riding is allowed on marked trails, climbing on White Rock and the adjacent southern ridge are prohibited and penalties may apply. White Rock is registered cultural heritage and protected under the Aboriginal Cultural Heritage Act 2003 (QLD).

It is recommended that visitors check the Ipswich City Council website for the latest information on closures or controlled burns in Conservation Estates before visiting. See the website before you head out.
