The Springbrook Mountain Visitor Centre is a small hut on Old School Road, at a historical school site. The hut is usually unmanned, in 2018 it was open on weekends and public holidays from 10am to 2pm. There are brochures available on the outside with information about the Springbrook Mountain area, including Natural Bridge, so you can get information when it isn’t manned.
There is plenty of parking space and a quick walk to the Wunburra Lookout
with views to the Gold Coast in the distance. There are no toilets but Apple Tree Park
is about 700m further along and has toilets.
