Our impressive Sunshine Coast beaches get a pretty good wrap. But they often overshadow our bush-filled inner spine, sprinkled with dazzling waterfalls and sensational swimming holes. If you’re looking for things to do in the Sunshine Coast Hinterland, chasing waterfalls is definitely up there.

The most popular would have to be Gardners Falls in Maleny and Kondalilla Falls in Montville. Both are fringed by rainforest and home to waterholes, perfect for cooling off in. Or, go off the beaten track and hunt down Baxter Falls in Flaxton and Artists Cascades and Booloumba Falls in Conondale National Park.
