Bikepacking the Glasshouse Mountains

#glasshousemountains #bikepacking #australia #adventure #queensland
A quick overnight trip in the Glasshouse Mountains area near Brisbane, Australia.
This region makes for a wonderful getaway from the City - backroads, national parks, mountain scenery and some nice campsites are all within a day's ride of several train stations.
My route was mixed gravel and pavement with a healthy dose of mud on day 1. Due to a Google maps 'malfunction', I had to ride an extra 15km or so at the end of the day and couldn't make it to my intended campsite. Fortunately, campsites aren't in short supply and I was able to find a nice spot in D'Aiguilar National Park (Archer).
Also in the video: Scrapping with an Ibis for my dinner, Hammock Camping, Russian Camping Breakfast and a couple of epic drone shots!
