Seven fire crews are on site at a fire burning this afternoon in East Nanango.

An Emergency Services spokesman said the fire, which broke out in a gully near Muir Drive about 9:00am today, is burning within containment lines and poses no risk to property.

It has burned out about five acres of bushland.

Earlier today, three crews were called about 1:00am to a small fire alongside the D’Aguilar Highway at Coolabunia.

They took less than 15 minutes to extinguish the fire.
