This is a short and sweet walk to several waterfalls located near North Tamborine, Queensland
The trail itself is nice and easy and meanders along Cedar Creek. It is only tricky if you want to go swimming and have to climb down rocks. There are several nice picnic spots at the beginning of the trail. The car park is small with no roadside parking and can fill up quickly on weekends.

This is a circular route on mostly fire roads through Tamborine National Park. The loop follows fire trails through bushland through the west end of Tamborine National Park. The ending section warrants the hard rating as the trail can become overgrown and difficult to navigate, as well as getting steep as it gains the ridge and then descends back to the car park.

Easy beautiful rainforest walk near Mount Tamborine, Queensland.
This Grade 3 walking trail loops through bujai, piccabeen palms and fig groves. Jessie MacDonald donated part of the area in 1933, hence the name. Good for children or beginners. It is just over 1 kilometre long and has a barely noticeable climb and descent.
After rainy the trail can be a bit muddy.
