"The Mount Norman track doesn't lead to the summit to access the summit an off track scramble is required. The route up is located just off the main track on the South side of the mountain just before (if travelling North from Mount Norman day use area) or just after (if travelling South from Castle Rock camping area) a rock arch the track goes through. There is talk of a painted arrows though they can be hard to spot I didn't see any on the way up and only noticed them on the returned even though I scrambled right over them. The scramble leads up some loose rock where you will then turn right up to a tree then climb up stones which are wedged in a crevice and work like steps to then the final section where the crevice forks into two crevices with a rock in the middle due to the narrow nature of the crevices I found it easiest to haul myself up the middle rock (this is probably the hardest section of the climb).

"Stayed at the B&B near Girraween National Park called Westeria Cottage. Great little cottage to accommodate wife' parents and us comfortably. Also checked out a few wineries. Pleasantly surprised with the quality of the wine. Recommend Tobin Estate." — tmpearce6 • Mar 5, 2011
