This tour begins with a country drive to Mapleton Falls, where you'll enjoy complimentary tea or coffee overlooking the falls.

Lunch is served at a cottage cafe offering local produce and crafts. Afterwards, continue along the ridgeline to a panoramic lookout featuring the Sunshine Coast coastline from Noosa to Caloundra and, on clear days, views to Moreton Island.

In Maleny, experience a 1.2 km guided nature walk through remnant old-growth rainforest with giant trees, native birds, and pademelons. If you prefer not to walk, you may relax at the entrance's discovery centre and cafe overlooking the Glass House Mountains.
