Parks & Nature
Buderim Forest Park is a 45 hectare haven of tranquillity less than a kilometre from the north side of Buderim village on the Sunshine Coast –just 15 minutes from the coast. With its towering trees, meandering tracks and stunning waterfall, this sub-tropical oasis is a paradise for nature lovers and photographers alike. Buderim Falls, also known as Serenity Falls, it’s a wonderful place to visit at any time of year, and looks particularly spectacular after rainfall when the waters cascade down the rock face into the waterhole below.

This lush green 55-hectare pocket of subtropical rainforest has famous views of the Glass House Mountains, which is really enough of a reason to visit in itself. Add a great green lawn with a playground to keep the kids entertained while you picnic and an easy, level track through the serene reserve (perfect for pram access) and you have an epic day trip! stop!
