From the newly named Steve Irwin Way turn into Barrs Rd (which is just past The Glasshouse Mountains Holiday Village) and continue past Mt Tibrogargan to the Old Gympie Rd intersection. Turn L here then turn R at the Glasshouse- Woodford Rd. Continue on to the Glasshouse Mountains Tourist Lookout. Pass this and keep going and onto the gravel road for another 200 meters then turn R into Connection Rd. Follow this for about 3 kilometers till the third locked gate on the R. Park cars here. Follow the track downwards for about 10 minutes (ignoring the track on the L) till you reach a very small car park and big knobby grey gum on your L with a big log behind it, and a bigger knobby grey gum off the track on the R. From here turn L and follow the faint track and some pink markers for another 15 minutes till you reach the base of the mountain. You have made it!
Important Information: As Wayne’s World is on the southern face there is no sun all day from mid February till early November. During these shaded times it is best to give it about two days to dry after rain. Most routes are fully bolted but take a light rack for the mixed routes (I have marked these and listed what gear to use). Take about 10 draws and bolt plates and I recommend some 10mm plates as some of the bolts are a bit fat. As with all Glasshouse destinations bring the Aerogard. Development is continuing so keep off the projects please.
Acknowledgements: I would like to thank Height Dynamics for donating the anchor stations, the thoughtful few that donated bolts, and the handful of dedicated climbers that helped me develop this area. Play safe! Wayne.

Up easily past two token bolts, then things get a bit more serious. Between the 4th and 5th bolt place yellow alien, but if you are feeling bold blast past this to the next bolt. Work your way up the flake to chains above No Honk. Worth doing.
