Nestled in the foothills of the Clarke Range, Mia Mia State Forest is mostly open eucalypt forest.

Fireclay Road got its name from local clay which was used to make bricks before the plantations were established here. The first hoop pine plantation of about 12 hectares was established in 1934 and the last available area was planted in 1991.

Registered four-wheel-drive vehicles, motor cycles, trailbikes and bicycles may be driven or ridden on roads in this forest. A special permit is not required unless it is a commercial activity, an organised group activity or a competitive event. Conditionally registered vehicles are not permitted. The driver must hold a valid licence to operate the vehicle.
