The Glass House Mountains are a cluster of thirteen hills that rise abruptly from the coastal plain on the Sunshine Coast, Queensland, Australia. The highest hill is Mount Beerwah at 556 metres above sea level, but the most identifiable of all the hills is Mount Tibrogargan which from certain angles bears a resemblance to a face staring east towards the ocean. The Glass House Mountains are located near Beerburrum State Forest and Steve Irwin Way. From Brisbane, the mountains can be reached by following the Bruce Highway north and taking the Glass House Mountains tourist drive turn-off onto Steve Irwin Way. The trip is about one hour from Brisbane. The Volcanic peaks of the Glass House Mountains rise dramatically from the surrounding Sunshine Coast landscape. They were formed by intrusive p

  • Im Gebiet der Glass House Mountains, auch Glasshouse Mountains geschrieben, befinden sich zwölf vulkanische Berge, die sich abrupt aus der relativ flachen Ebene an der Sunshine Coast im Inland von Queensland in Australien erheben. Die Berge liegen etwa 70 Kilometer nördlich von Brisbane. Das Gebiet ist Teil der Great Dividing Range. Die Ebene zwischen und um die Berge wird vor allem zum Anbau von Ananas, zur Geflügelzucht und für Forst- und Holzwirtschaft genutzt. (de)

The Glass House Mountains are located near Beerburrum State Forest and Steve Irwin Way. From Brisbane, the mountains can be reached by following the Bruce Highway north and taking the Glass House Mountains tourist drive turn-off onto Steve Irwin Way. The trip is about one hour from Brisbane. The Volcanic peaks of the Glass House Mountains rise dramatically from the surrounding Sunshine Coast landscape. They were formed by intrusive plugs, remnants of volcanic activity that occurred 26–27 million years ago. Molten rock filled small vents or intruded as bodies beneath the surface and solidified into land rocks. Millions of years of erosion have removed the surrounding exteriors of volcanic cores and softer sandstone rock. Whilst the traditional names for the hills themselves are very old, the term 'Glass House Mountains' was given more recently by explorer Lieutenant James Cook on 17 May 1770. The peaks reminded him of the glass furnaces in his home county of Yorkshire. Matthew Flinders explored the area and climbed Mount Beerburrum after sailing along Pumicestone Passage in 1799. The Glass House Mountains National Landscape was added to the Australian National Heritage List on 3 August 2006. In the land between the peaks, pineapple and poultry farming, as well as commercial forestry and quarrying are the main land uses. In 2009 as part of the Q150 celebrations, the Glass House Mountains was announced as one of the Q150 Icons of Queensland for its role as a "Natural attraction". (en)
  • En la zona de las montañas Glass House, también llamada montañas Glasshouse, hay doce montañas volcánicas que se elevan abruptamente desde la llanura relativamente plana de Sunshine Coast, en el interior de Queensland, Australia. Las montañas se encuentran a unos 70 kilómetros al norte de Brisbane. La zona forma parte de la Gran Cordillera Divisoria. La llanura entre y alrededor de las montañas se utiliza principalmente para el cultivo de la piña, la avicultura y la silvicultura y la madera.​ (es)
