Buderim Walks: EJ Foote Walk

Highlights

Starting at Wirreanda park take a moment to admire the amazing weeping fig trees that once formed the entrance to and old homestead and were planted over 100 years ago. You then take a nice walk thru some of the quite neighborhoods of Buderim to Whites Lookout and Park to look north east out across Maroochydore river and the ocean. Then a quick walk down the aptly named Park Ln. leads into EJ Foote sanctuary and it's many options to explore another natural gem in this region.

There are picnic tables and playground available in a number of locations along the walk making this a great way to encourage the younger walkers along with play stops along the way!
