Sparkes Hill is a prominent landmark to the East of Everton Park State High School, and bordered on the south-side by the Brook. In the past, it has been quarried, used as a dump but more recently hosts a group of large important water resevoirs in amongst its thick cover of tall trees. A communication tower pokes its way out near the top where there is also a simple park with some wooden seats.
It is home to a Flying-fox colony. There are three species, the most common is the Black flying fox, but the Little-red and Grey-headed flying foxes are also present.
