Beautiful Rainforest in Queensland, Aus 🇦🇺
Kondalilla National Park is a popular subtropical rainforest, located in Sunshine Coast, Queensland. It is home of multiple species of flora and fauna. Kondalilla comes from the aboriginal word means “rushing waters”, describing the park’s stunning waterfalls. It approximately 1 hour and 30 minutes drive from Brisbane City.
Since it is quite a distance from our house, we decided to leave as early as 8 o’clock in the morning. We reached the place around 9:30am. It was a good time as there were still lots of spaces in the car park and it wasn’t that crowded. The entrance is free.
Along the way, we were able to appreciate the Obi Valley and Kondalilla falls from two separate lookouts. It is so beautiful! The rockpools above the waterfall on the Skene creek is a popular swimming spot in the park. Unfortunately, we didn’t bring any swimming clothes. We will definitely try it next time!
Although the walk can be challenging due to multiple stairs and rocky path, we were able to reach the bottom of the waterfalls at approximately 1 hour and 40 minutes from the entrance including the stops we made. It is definitely worth it!
Take note: Pets are not allowed in the park. Also, there’s a proper bathroom only in the picnic area near the entrance.
