Why go

The small remnant rainforest gives you a shaded nature stop above the Sunshine Coast. Follow the signed paths to notice the forest at close range, then pause at the outlook for a view of the Glass House Mountains and their volcanic forms.

What to look for

  • Signed paths pass through a remnant of subtropical rainforest.
  • The outlook frames the Glass House Mountains’ volcanic landscape.

Useful to know

  • Check the reserve walk and Discovery Centre hours separately before leaving.
