The Magic of Noosa – its Free


A short drive from Rimini by the River in Noosaville takes you to the beautiful NOOSA NATIONAL PARK.

Noosa National Park is a diverse 477ha coastal park, a mixture of trees, fauna, birds and wildlife nestle in its protected woodland and rain forest. Some of south-east Queensland's most picturesque coastline can be view from the Noosa National Park. Embrace this breathtaking walk, wind along several sheltered bays with beautiful, secluded beaches to a headland with stunning views. The park includes the popular scenic headland at Noosa Heads, parts of Lake Weyba (a large, shallow, saltwater lake in the Noosa River system), Emu Mountain and coastal lowlands extending south towards Coolum.

The park is home to rare and threatened wildlife such as the glossy black cockatoo, ground parrot, koala, red goshawk, wallum froglet, swamp orchid and Christmas bell.

The Noosa Headland Section of Noosa National Park is at the end of Park Road, Noosa Heads. Access is available by walking from Hastings Street Noosa along the seaside boardwalk, enjoying the refreshing ocean views or by catching the local shuttle bus to the national park during peak holiday periods. There are limited parking spaces in the Noosa National park car park.

There is also access to the Noosa Headland Section from Parkedge Road and the northern end of Sunshine Beach. Parking is limited.

Laguna lookout is accessed from the end of Viewland Drive in Noosa Heads.
In the Noosa Headland Section, the coastal track from the information center to Dolphin Point is paved and suitable for assisted wheelchair and stroller access. The toilets near the information center and the toilets at Tea Tree Bay are wheelchair accessible.

There are several popular walking trails in Noosa National Park, these easy to moderate walking tracks wind along the coast, through rain forest and open woodlands and across colourful wallum heath and sedge lands. Longer tracks lead out through open forest and heath, where a great variety of wildflowers can be observed in winter and spring.

Be prepared for your walk, especially in hot weather. Wear a hat and sunscreen, repellent, bring sufficient water, and allow adequate time to complete the walk. Suitable, sturdy footwear is recommended. Take a camera
