Adventure: Time travel along the Buderim Tramway Trail

Discover a 2km gem of a trail through the natural rainforest environment of the old tram line, many locals don't even know exist.

Suitability

Suitable for walkers and families, plus dogs are allowed on lead. The easy grade, flat gravel track (4.2km return) is wheelchair accessible with a ramp to the trail, however there are a few rough spots. 

Highlights 

Take a walk back in time as you follow the track of the old Buderim-Palmwoods Tramway, with various information points along the way. It will transport your mind back to a time where this active rail connection was the spine of a growing community. 

At the same time, the setting is beautiful with a natural environment that boasts towering trees, small mosses, and fern gullies.

This is a wonderful way to spend an hour or so walking the flat track and exploring some of Buderim's local history. 

Special credit must be given to the Buderim-Palmwoods Heritage Tramway Inc for the love and tireless effort they put towards this trail. You can find one of their detailed brochures at the beginning of the track and you can join them on a unique guided tour on May 3 at 1pm. Jump on their Facebook.com/BHTPI page for all the details.

Afterwards
