"Of Sunshine Coast's hinterland retreats, few are more captivating than this tranquil expanse of rainforest. Set amid the rolling Blackall Range, the Mary Cairncross Scenic Reserve is a wonderful spot to enjoy some forest bathing. As you stop to soak up its clean, cool air, take in the sounds of the forest and admire the abundance of birdlife and resident marsupials. And with the Glass House Mountains looming in the distance, the views here are tremendous. It's just outside the charming township of Maleny, which has a farmers market, cheesemaker and a microbrewery for stocking up on all the essentials!"
