Create an itinerary including Tewantin National Park
The Tewantin National Park is a 13 square kilometre national park in Queensland, Australia. It consists of five individual areas west of Noosa Heads in the Wide Bay-Burnett region about 115 kilometres north of Brisbane and 125Β km south of Hervey Bay. The park is divided into disconnected sections within Lake Macdonald, Tinbeerwah, Tewantin and Noosaville.

The national park protects coastal rainforest, bright eucalyptus forest and the last remnants of Wallum Heath between Noosa and Cooroy. Mount Tinbeerwah (265 m) is composed of solidified lava, which was created by volcanic activity millions of years ago. In its surroundings you can find the endangered swamp stringybark (Eucalyptus conglomerata) with its many trunks, gray, fibrous bark and bunches of white flowers.

Many amphibians live in the park, including the nearly endangered tusked frog (Adelotus brevis) and the endangered or threatened green-thighed frog, wallum froglet, and giant barred frog. About 70 different bird species have been observed in the park, including the almost endangered red-browed treecreeper.

  • Decided to visit this scenic lookout after visiting Cooroy. Definitely worth the side trip and the views are spectacular from the top. Approximately 400 metres from car park up a well maintained walk....  more

  • Early morning drive to this the hidden tuck away place, near Noosa. A small walking trail but it definitely worth the drive to get there & the track πŸ‘£ πŸ‘Œ πŸ˜‰ to get up the top to see πŸ‘€ the 360Β° view INSANELY Beautiful 😍. I want to go there while sunrise πŸŒ… so I can meditate πŸ§˜β€β™‚οΈ πŸ˜€ 😊. Breathe taking scenery WoW Factor most definitely. Meet a couple of walkers had a lovely chat about all the places (National Parks) we've been too & our favourite places to go. They were so super friendly, something about being in nature always puts a smile on your dial... Go check this place out have a picnic up the top & take in the view, I promise you you won't regret it❣😘πŸ₯°
  • On our way to Noosa (Hastings St) from Rainbow Beach followed the old highway and down through Tewantin and headed up through the Tewantin National Park and we weren’t disappointed with the view. Just a small short walk to the first stop on the walk to the top there is an amazing view from Noosa to Teewah Beach.
