There is a mostly level gravel track around the perimeter of the hill, apart from the section along Tianna Road. Use the Zig Zag and Upper Track to complete the circuit between Rowitta Road and Natone Street (bike riders may prefer to use Tianna Road which is less hilly) or alternatively retrace your steps back to the start to avoid the hilly section.

On-street car parking is available on Nubeena Street and Tianna Road.

You can also walk to the top of the hill from points along the circuit, the shortest being the Zig Zag Track near Natone Street. This is a short but steep track and takes about 5 to 10 minutes.

There are panoramic views from the top and you can also view wartime bunkers completed by army reservists as a training exercise during World War II.
