About Noosa Heads & the Sunshine Coast
Noosa Heads sits at the northern tip of a stunning coastal headland on Queensland's Sunshine Coast. With crystal-clear waters, sheltered coves, and a string of exceptional walking trails, this is a premier destination for beach-goers, hikers, and road trippers seeking coastal scenery and outdoor activity.
Walks & Trails
Noosa's trail network is exceptional. On the headland itself, walk the First Point Walkway, Park Road Pathway, and Main Beach Boardwalk for coastal views and ocean access. Inland tracks like Palm Grove Walk, Noosa Hill Track, and Tanglewood Track are easy hikes through native bushland. For keen walkers, try David Nicholls Rise, Geoff Flynn Rise, or Noosa National Parks for more challenging terrain and panoramic views.
