This is Duck Creek Road with a twist, instead of following the black top all the way around from Canungra, swing left at Wonglepong and enjoy a bit of easy off road through the farmland. You'll eventually find your way to Duck Creek Road and O'Reilly's with the return trip bringing you back down the national park road and right back where you started in Canungra.
There are a number of gates, this is a legal road/track however parts of it pass through farmland so please do the right thing and close the gates behind you.
See my videos of this track at http://www.vimeo.com/redjack there is one there for the Canungra to Duck Creek Road portion and another for the Duck Creek Road to O'Reilly's part.
Keep your eye open for the side tracks on Duck Creek Road, they can add a bit of challenge to an otherwise easy day out.

6390 | Did this entire circuit today, great drive through farm land to mountain climb. Farm land track was rutted, but a good easy scenic track, remember to shut the gates. Duck creek track was a great drive, rutted in places and lots of large rocks on rd. I would NOT do in the rain or after rain. To many very very steep drop offs & says not too anyway. Would do again. | Toyota Prado | Mar 7, 2015 |

46177 | First time 4WDing, I found this track on here and searched it out. Was a great run! We came down in reverse, going up to O'Reilly's on the main road, and back down Duck Creek Rd toward Biddaddaba Creek Rd and across the farmland. Great experience if you have 3-4 hours spare to do the loop. | Toyota Hilux | Feb 9, 2014 |

43654 | Great cruisy Sunday morning drive. Very dry and there was not much traffic at all. Nice views and plenty of chances to stop for a look. Looked like some fun side tracks when you get further up but we stayed to the main track. | Toyota Hilux | Nov 3, 2013 |
43094 | Went there again today, i love this trip for a Quicky as i live in Canungra, its pretty easy but there is one spot about half way up that is rock and you have to basically idle across it, love stopping at the lookout for lunch, and some of the detours can be challenging. | Jeep Grand Cherokee | Sep 15, 2013 |
