In response to a query in the Noosa MP Survey, the following information has been sourced:

Cooroy Mountain is a very small natural bushland area of about 47 hectares which is essentially land locked. The boundary of the Mount Cooroy Conservation Park is enclosed by private properties with public access to the site being significantly constrained. There has never been any formalised and constructed practical access to the mountain rather only incidental access through private lands. There is a vegetated unconstructed road easement to the park edge (to the east) that is managed by Noosa Shire Council. Queensland Parks and Wildlife Service and Partnerships (QPWSP) has no plans to clear vegetation on council easements to provide access to the edge of the park. Even if this vegetation was cleared to provide access to the park edge on the eastern side of the mountain, there is no guarantee that climbing the mountain is possible from that aspect, as historically any climbing of the mountain has been undertaken via private property on the western side of the mountain. Due to the small size of the park, and access constraints to the site, QPWSP is of the view that formally opening the mountain to public access is not a viable option at this stage, however as has been seen during the construction of the Noosa trails network, permission was able to be obtained from private landholders and it is worth contacting Noosa Council to see if this is possible.
