Suncoaster Trail Description
The Suncoaster Trail is a great half-day hike along the Sunshine Coast due to its pleasant trails and beautiful forest scenery. While the hike lacks dramatic views of mountain peaks or rugged coastlines, it makes up for with a relaxing forest atmosphere that will wash all of your worries away and allow you to disconnect from the outside world. Setting out from the campground, follow the trail to the northeast, making sure to take the path to the left when you reach the fork in the trail. From here, you will hike through an amazing stretch of forest and climb uphill along a gradual incline to a viewpoint of the surrounding forests. After reaching the end of the trail, make your way back down the same route to return to the trailhead below.
