About Mt Joyce Recreation Park

Experience more than 40 kilometres of new multi-use tracks and trails at the Mt Joyce Recreation Park.

The Park is located approximately one hour south-west of Brisbane. With its close proximity to major population centres in South East Queendsland, including Brisbane, Logan, Ipswich and the Gold Coast, the Park is an ideal location to cater for a variety of outdoor recreational activities.

Master-planned to provide a point of difference to the activities available at the close by Moogerah and Maroon Dams, this eco-tourism destination has something for all the family.

From world class mountain bike trails, shoreline horse trails, bush walks, trail runs and canoe trails, the Park also incorporates picnic facilities, playground and other amenities.

The Park is open from 6.00 am to 6.00 pm seven days per week. With the exception of the designated camping grounds, you are not permitted to access the Park outside these times unless you have a permit to do so.

The Park was designed following detailed planning and consultation with stakeholder groups. A Recreation Master Plan was developed as part of the Wyaralong Dam Project. Download a copy of this Plan (7MB).
