Noosa National Park

Magnificent views with 5 excellent walks of varying lengths. Parking can be tricky as the car park fills fast and early (by 9am). There is also street parking for about 30 cars but it's 2 hours so you need to be mindful of that. Having said that most walks/trails can be easily completed under 2 hours.

The coastal walk to Hell's gate is brilliant as is Alexandria beach. There is also a very small trail right at the entrance of just over 1 klms but it's brilliant also. We did 4 out of the five walks in 2 days followed by an hour or two cooling off at Noosa Beach. The water was 26 Celsius...

There is also adequate toilet facilities at the entrance and all walks are well signed. Enjoy.

What a beautiful national park. Multiple walking trails with amazing views. If you are looking for an active activity to do with the family, I would highly recommend a visit here. Lots of places to stop along the walk including secluded beaches, fairy rock pools and viewing docks. Making it to the peak at Hell's gate is well worth the trek. Be warned, it gets busy so if you can walk here instead of drive that is definitely the better option as finding a car park after 9am will be hard.

A beautiful national park with good walking trails seeing fabulous views. Wear polaroid glasses for better viewing. We were able to see turtles swimming and a pod of dolphins. Definately recommend walking the trail and wear swimmers so you can swim at one of the beaches if you like. There is a dog beach on the southern end of the park at Sunshine Beach. All the rain bought small waterfalls 😄

Excellent walking tracks, spectacular views and fantastic swimming and surf beaches.

Only downside is that it can get quite busy on the trails and parking is difficult in peak times.

Bring sufficient water if on a hot day! I walked from Sunshine beach to Noosa heads and only saw 1 water station over 10+km! Breathtaking views

what a beautiful sea
clear emerald water
fresh air
Waves🌊, panoramic view of the scenery
A must-visit national park👍

Worth the visit!! We did the coastal walk and its great to stop by the beaches on the way. There are various surf spots throughout the trail! Tip: recommend to bring a water bottle and a hat. Loved it!

Our first question when we encountered this sign was, what’s the difference between First Point Walk Way and First Point National Park? Secondly, do they both lead to the entrance of Noosa National Park?

Essentially, both paths eventually merges and both paths leads to Noosa National Park. The only difference is that the First Point Walk Way leads to a flight of steps while the other is a walk up the slope on the board walk. If we could choose again, definitely the slop via the First Point National Park 😉

Before long, we arrived at Noosa National Park…

One of the highlights of visiting Noosa National Park is to do the Coastal Walk. The Coastal Walk starts from the entrance of Noosa National Park, passing by iconic landmarks such as the Boiling Pot, Tea Tree Bay, Dolphin Point, Granite Bay and Hell’s Gate. Having learnt from our lessons of trekking across the lava field at Volcanoes National Park Hawaii, we decided that heading back after visiting Hell’s Gate would be a wise decision.

Otherwise, the Coastal Walk continues past Hell’s Gate, towards Alexandria Bay – a 1km stretch of beautiful beach and clear blue waters.

Wonderful place. I loved this Noosa National Park a lot. Walking around the forest and ocean road. There are some routes, I choose the two route - Tanglewood and it took around three hours.

Such a beautiful national park, the water is so clear and it's in turquoise colour. There're a lot of different walks to choose from but personally I think the coastal walk is the best. You can spot some whales during the migration season. There's also a fairy pool here, which is pretty cool, bring a swimwear if you'd like to do a dip! Definitely child friendly but dogs are not allowed here. Public restrooms are available. There's an information centre at the start of the walk. Parking can be hard to find if you come late.

Absolutely stunning views. One of the best national park walks I've ever done. Spectacular

The Noosa National Park walk/hike turned out to be a fantastic experience. With several trail options to choose from, I had the luxury of exploring the park in very pleasant weather. The symphony of bird songs accompanied me along the way, creating a soothing atmosphere.

To my delight, luck was on my side as I spotted a kangaroo during my walk. While I wasn't able to capture a photo, the memory remains vivid. If you're planning a visit to Noosa, the Noosa National Park walk/hike is a must-include item in your itinerary. It's an experience that showcases the park's natural beauty and wildlife, making it a perfect addition to your bucket list.

The walks are great, not difficult and accessible. The views are stunning. Plenty of wildlife also, I managed to spot a brown snake!

A favourite place since my childhood.
Unspoilt beauty and just a magic place to go and enjoy nature. Pretty as a picture st every turn.

Great national park, well preserved and a nice view. Some cliffs are perfect to look for whales, turtles, dolphins, rays, among other marine animals. We also found echidnas walking around and very close to nice beaches to go for a swim. Longest trail is around 10km both ways

Such a wonderful place to visit!
Beautiful nature, extraordinary ocean view and sea side!

Noosa National Park on Queensland's Sunshine Coast is a coastal paradise that captivates visitors with its natural beauty. My friend and I use the coastal route and we are satisfied with our decision. This is the recommended route because most of the walkways are even and cost least energy to travel (except the Sunshine beach, Alexandria Bay and some paths have stairs) but still can enjoy picturesque beaches, scenic walking trails, and breathtaking ocean views. The coastal track offers panoramic vistas and chances to spot dolphins and whales (but really rare, I don't have a chance to see them but hear their sound from a distance near Dolphin Point). The park's interior trails showcase diverse flora, fauna, and iconic landmarks like Hell's Gates. Well-maintained facilities and knowledgeable staff enhance the experience. People can still choose to experience Tanglewood walk and Hill walk but remember to follow the instructions along the way, do not walk alone and bring enough water with you. Be mindful of crowds by visiting on weekdays or arriving early as well. Noosa National Park is an enchanting destination for nature enthusiasts and have a great trip!

Loved being here. Gorgeous beaches entertainment and shopping. Excellent.
Will visit again.

I personally love this national park, it's incredible how you can walk beside the sea but also into the nature.
Oh, and one of the best sunrise and sunset I have ever seen

WOW.
Amazing walks.
Beaches are delightful
Sharing waves, making new friends.

Parking is a nightmare, walk in if you can
