Conondale

Like many other rural communities in the Sunshine Coast hinterland, Conondale is a beautiful residential township with many natural attractions.

Located just 60kms west of the coastal city of Mooloolaba, Conondale is a quiet and peaceful township, home to the Conondale National Park.

Most people visiting Conondale come to the National Park, which has several picnic spots, hikes and strolls. Mount Allan fire tower is a popular spot that provides a panoramic view of the rugged mountain ranges. At the Peters and Booloumba Creek junction, there is a scenic lookout over cascades, falls, rock pools and The Breadknife rock formation.

There are some walking tracks found with the Conondale National Park where you can explore the forests, creeks and waterfalls.

Stop at one of the picnic areas after your walk or ride and enjoy the use of the picnic tables, BBQ’s and toilets at the Booloumba Creek day-use area beside the creek. You must bring your own water and ensure you take away rubbish. Domestic animals are not permitted within the park, except for horses, which may be ridden only by the Horse Trail Network.

There are three camping areas at Booloumba Creek, with camping areas 1 and 3 suitable for tents and camping area 4 suitable for caravans and trailers. Camping permits are required, and please note that camp sites must be booked well in advance.
