Jowarra Park

Jowarra Park serves as an accessible entry point to the northern section of the Mooloolah River National Park. Located in Glenview, the site features a day-use area and a gateway to several walking tracks, including the Mooloolah River circuit and the Melaleuca track. Visitors observe various plant communities ranging from coastal heath to rainforest environments. The area supports local biodiversity, providing habitats for diverse bird species and native mammals within a protected natural setting. The park is positioned near the Steve Irwin Way, making it a practical stop for those travelling through the Sunshine Coast region. It is situated a short drive from Australia Zoo, allowing visitors to combine a trip to the wildlife park with a quiet walk through native bushland. Facilities at the site include picnic tables and informative signage regarding the local ecology. This location offers a glimpse into the region's original landscape before residential and commercial development expanded.
