Walk or Run the Tracks

Noosa National Park is a walking wonderland with a vast network of tracks ready to be explored by hikers, runners, surfers, and nature enthusiasts. The park offers five epic tracks, ranging from short strolls to multi-hour adventures.

The spectacular coastal track provides stunning views of Laguna Bay, Noosa North Shore, and the Cooloola Sand patch, with side tracks leading to secluded bays like Tea Tree and Granite. For a quieter experience, the inland tracks meander through rainforests, open woodlands, heathlands, and stands of hoop and kauri pine, offering an easy to moderate challenge and a chance to see a beautiful array of birdlife.

Plants & Wildlife

Noosa National Park is a haven for wildlife enthusiasts. Keep your eyes peeled for koalas snoozing in the trees, black cockatoos, and echidnas scuttling across the ground, as well as wallabies, the protected brush turkey, and goannas. Look out to sea to spot turtles surfacing for air, playful pods of dolphins, and majestic whales from June to November.

Starting at the main entrance, you'll wander through a forest of Queensland brush box trees. As you venture deeper into the park, you'll encounter banksias, she-oaks, and towering kauri pines. At Hell’s Gates, the escarpment is adorned with brilliant green coastal boobialla, sprinkled with tiny white flowers if you look closely.

Noosa Fairy Pools

This once hidden gem, tucked away along the coastal track offers a tranquil escape. The tide fills the pools, creating a calm and magical swimming spot that feels like a fairy tale. There are two pools to explore: one closer to the water level, which remains shallow, and another higher up in the rocks, which is much deeper—you can't stand in it when it's full. Both pools are teeming with life, showcasing fish, colourful corals, and sponges growing on the sides. An instagram moment so don’t forget your camera.
