This drive leads through the Blackall Range, the tranquil, emerald-green hills that frame the beaches and resort towns of the Sunshine Coast.En route are quaint hillside villages well serviced with cafes, stores and galleries and to the south a scenic road swoops through the sculptural shapes of the Glass House Mountains. The journey can be completed in a day, but there are plenty of B & Bs and guesthouses for over night stays.
Starting at Noosa Heads, which is known for being a fashionable resort town on Laguna Bay at the mouth of Noosa Village. The clifftop views here are unbelievable. Leaving this location you will head to Eumundi, a 19th century timber town which is the starting point of the ascent to the hills.
Wednesday and Saturdays are a great time to visit there because of the outdoor fresh markets. Next stop on this tour is Yandina. This is the home of the Ginger Factory, this is both a ginger factory and a theme park in one. Ginger is a high yielding local crop and the factory operations are combined with plenty of interesting experiences for the visitors. Don't miss the Queensland Cane Train ride through the beautiful gardens.On the way to Mapleton, stop at the Dulong Lookout situated at the top of the escarpment. The views are exhilarating " rolling green hills to the east and dense forest to the north. Take the time to explore tiny Mapleton Falls National Park which preserves remnant rainforest and a 120 metre waterfall. The road from Mapleton to Flaxton traces the ridge of the Blackall Ranges offering magnificent views east and west .Just south of Flaxton is the turn-off to Kondalilla National Park, a small park where over 100 bird species have been recorded. This is also where you will find Kondalilla Falls, an impressive 90metre cascade with a rockpool suitable for swimming perched on top!
Between Montville and Maleny is Gerrard Lookout -375 metres above sea level. It takes the entire spread of the Sunshine Coast from the high rise of Caloundra to the dense coastal forests around Noosa Heads.Balmoral Lookout, a few kilometers further along offers views across farmland to nearby Lake Baroon and westward to the forests around Kenilworth. Beyond Maleny is Mountain View Road which provides breathtaking views of the Mountains .At McCarthys lookout a sign identifies the peaks including those of the Glass House Mountains. Further along, visit Mary Cairncross Park named after the famous environmentalist where there are walking tracks and a natural history centre.
The old Gympie Road cuts through the middle of the Glass House Mountains veering south just ahead of Landsborough .There are 16 volcanic plugs and peaks rise abruptly from the plains reaching a maximum height of 556 metres.Many of these walks require rock climbing ability but there is an easier two hour return hike up 253 metre Mt Ngungun via the township of Glass House Mountains.
