The honey scent from flowering bushes hits you before the view does. A 400-metre walk from the carpark, mostly paved with stretches of flat granite boulders, puts you above the entire Noosa hinterland in under 15 minutes. From the top, the Glass House Mountains anchor one horizon while the Sunshine Coast stretches out to the other. Weekends bring abseilers working the cliff edges, which adds a certain energy to an otherwise quiet summit. Come at sunrise or sunset when the light does the heavy lifting. Parking is limited and shade is scarce, so bring water and a hat. The cliff edges are largely unfenced, worth knowing if you have children in tow. March flies are a genuine nuisance in warmer months, so plan accordingly.

Great lookout, 3km bitumen road in from the main road to the carpark, then an easy (if reasonable fit) 400m walk on a well-defined track to the lookout. Near the top there are abseilers doing their thing on the weekends. From the lookout you have an expansive view of Noosa and surrounds, even on a cloudy day. Sadly, we had to shorten our time there after being attacked by march flies. This lookout would be best experienced near sunrise or sunset. There are toilet facilities near the carpark. I recommend you come and check it out for yourself!

Easy 10-15 walk up from the parking lot. Even on a rainy windy day the views don’t disappoint. A sunny sunset up here would be lovely!

A good walk up the hill to the look out - about 10-15 min. Partly rock face and steps along a lovely stone paved path, so it is a comfortable, safe climb. If you have children you would need to watch them as they could wonder off the path to the edges. Beautiful and interesting plants, flowers and views to see on the way up. We noticed the sweet, honey smell of the flowered bushes as we climbed. The views were worth the climb. Quiet spectacular even on a cloudy, hazy day. It would be great if they had an information sign about the hills and places you were viewing. This would have added to the experience. The information board they had at the bottom was great to identify the flowers and such. We didn't see any of the fauna though. I would definitely come back again.

Sunshine Beach
A staircase descent to Sunshine Beach that doubles as the southern entry point for the Noosa National Park trail. Limited street parking means rideshare is often the smarter call. Dogs welcome, views good on the way down.
Noosa Regional Gallery
Tewantin QLD
A glow room, shadow puppets, and a rotating program of contemporary art that takes itself seriously without losing the kids. Noosa Regional Gallery punches above its size, especially during NAIDOC weekends when Kabi Kabi cultural experiences come to the forecourt.
