- Glass House Mountains Lookout - The Glass House Mountains, located in the Sunshine Coast Hinterland, offer a breathtaking and unique experience for those seeking a blend of natural beauty and cultural history. The cluster of ancient volcanic peaks, named by Captain James Cook in 1770, captivates visitors with its dramatic landscape and panoramic views. Rich in First Nations heritage, the area holds stories and traditions of the indigenous people. Made of trachyte and rhyolite, the mountains were formed about 25-27 million years ago as molten lava cooled and hardened within the vents of ancient volcanoes. Over time, the softer material surrounding the volcanic plugs eroded, leaving the striking peaks we see today.
- McCarthy’s Lookout - This lookout is located in Jinibara Country in Maleny. The vistas allow you to soak up the views of the Glass House Mountains and surrounding countryside. The views are nothing short of spectacular and allow you to see the majestic Blackall Range and Moreton Bay. As you gaze upon the panoramic views, you’ll be captivated by the lush rolling hills, dense forests, and the mesmerizing silhouettes of the volcanic peaks in the distance.

Gerrard’s Lookout, perched high on the Blackall Range in the Sunshine Coast hinterland, offers a truly awe-inspiring vantage point to appreciate the vast expanse of the region’s picturesque landscape.

- The Original Eumundi Markets - Visiting the Eumundi Markets is an experience that uniquely combines the vibrancy of local culture with the charm of a traditional marketplace. The markets aren’t just about shopping; they’re a cultural experience. As you meander through the maze of stalls, you’ll hear the sounds of live music and the enticing aromas of freshly cooked cuisine from around the world. It’s a place where you can chat with local artisans, each with their own story, and see their passion reflected in their work. But perhaps the most compelling reason to visit is the sense of community that permeates the market. It’s a vibrant hub where locals and visitors alike gather, not just to shop, but to connect, relax, and soak in the laid-back, yet lively, ambiance. Whether you’re a foodie, an art enthusiast, or simply looking for a unique and enjoyable day out, the Eumundi Markets offer an experience that’s as rich in culture as it is in flavour.
