This walk leaves from a gate on a sharp bend of Northbrook Parkway, adjacent to Wivenhoe Lookout. It winds it's way along several ridges before descending to 'Red Cedar' picnic ground, which can be found further down Northbrook Parkway. The route is popular with cross country runners and mountain bikers, who often utilise this track to run and cycle between Cedar Flats and Mount Glorious.
Although this route does not pose much difficulty, there is some navigation required as there are other tracks which veer off in other directions along the management road. A topographic map of Brisbane Forest Park is recommended to navigate and locate the correct route to 'Red Cedar.'
There are some steep sections to negotiate upon descent which can impact quite heavily on the knees and in some sections it may be required to crouch and slide, or run and slide down on your feet. The walk eventually comes to a creek and then the main road, a short walk further along the road will lead to the picnic ground.
It is possible to diverge from the route described to locate 'White Cedar' another popular picnic ground located further along the Parkway. However this route may cross private land, therefore permission may be required to gain access.
