HOME AMONGST THE GUM TREES

Coolabine Ridge Cottages are situated on 500 acres in the Sunshine Coast Hinterland at Mapleton some two hours north of Brisbane .

This was a great place to just relax but also to do some varied day walks along the tracks through forests , hills and waterfalls..

The Sunshine Coast Great Walk passes right by the property and it is a 200metre walk to the track. From here it was a 2km walk to the third walkers camp , Thilba Thalba, which has been set up along the way. A further 2 km to the top of Mt Thilba Thalba which gave panoramic valley views.

We also completed smaller walks on the Mapleton Falls circuit and the longer circuit to the bottom and back of the Kondalilla Falls.

The Coolabine promo summed it up thus
