Description

The densest and best quality boulders at Toohey.

Access issues inherited from Toohey Forest

'Toohey Forest' is owned by the Brisbane City Council. It's an important habitat for 400 plants and animals, and is very popular with walkers, joggers and picnicking families. Therefore the usual rules of taking out your rubbish, keeping noise to a minimum, cleaning any chalk marks and so on are particularly important here if climbing is to remain an acceptable activity in the eyes of the community.

Approach

From the main car park just off Toohey Rd, follow the Toohey Ridge Track (it's the leftmost of the tracks and is sealed) for 5 minutes or so, passing the wooden bridge and the intersection with the Sandstone Circuit. You'll come to a weird Y in the bitumen that looks like the track was built wrong. Turn right along the bitumen then immediately veer downhill on a small dirt path. After about 20m the path peters out. Continue straight ahead, dropping down between two boulders. The overhanging boulder on the right (facing downhill) is the 'Unleash the Dancer Boulder', while the slabby one on the left is the 'Cobble Slab'.
