The East Peak is the more open and exposed summit of Mount Coochin, featuring a rocky outcrop that provides wider, more expansive views across Glass House Mountains National Park and out toward the coastal plain. Reached via a steep descent and climb through the saddle, the summit offers fantastic long-distance views over the western peak, making it the primary vantage point of the twin peaks. The terrain near the top is rugged with light scrambling, but it is rewarding, with wide panoramas over the surrounding volcanic peaks and lowlands.
