Stillwater Bluffs Trail Description
Hiking the Stillwater Bluffs Trail is a short and fun trek along the Sunshine Coast that will provide you with some truly amazing views for little effort. As mentioned, the loop portion of the trail does not have a dedicated trail, so you will need to use very basic route finding skills to follow along the edge of the water and meet back up with the path. Setting out from the parking area, follow the road to the south and head right to make your way past the private property and into the forest. Follow the trail to the right to meander amongst the trees until you arrive at the rocky bluff. Relish in the breathtaking views that stretch out across the water towards Texada Island and follow the edge of the water, keeping left to continue on a route that will meet back up with the main trail. Eventually, you will enter back into the forest and return to the trailhead where you began your hike.
