The two mountains in this park provide excellent and diverse opportunities for bushwalkers, campers, climbers, birdwatchers and nature lovers. Pine Mountain, one of Australia's largest monoliths, has a drier climate that supports many rare plants.Mount Burrowa, an area of higher rainfall, supports wet forest plants and is more heavily timbered.
About 350 million years ago a mass of molten lava forced its way through the earth's crust, cooled and became a hard rock called jemba rhyolite. The rhyolite was harder than the surrounding rock and subsequent erosion has left only the rhyolite mountain.
This is the Mount Burrowa massif or Cudgewa Bluff. It is different from the granite of nearby Pine Mountain, which contains larger crystals formed when it cooled slowly below the earth's surface.
