A splendid walking trail has been developed from two entry points. The lower entry is off Lindsay Road via Harry’s Lane, while the second entry point is via Quorn Close, which runs off Lindsay Road at the top of Buderim. Both entries have their advantages and disadvantages and there is parking at both entry points, with most at the top Quorn Close entry.
The lower Lindsay Road entry begins with a huge park, there are electric barbecues and picnic tables available. At the end of the short loop road, you will find an elevated wooden boardwalk, which carries you through the forest, criss-crossing Martins Creek at several spots. The boardwalk is excellent for disabled walkers and wheelchairs.
Ultimately this walkway becomes a fairly rugged trail which is not suitable for anyone with walking difficulties or a low level of fitness. Keep following this trail and the reward is a sensational wander through serene bushland along the creek, past babbling cascades and ultimately to the Buderim Falls.
The upper entry point at the base of Quorn Close has a good amount of parking and a memorial garden in memory of Edna Wallings. Edna is famous for creating many gardens around the world and actually retired here to Buderim in Lindsay Road. Also at the top you will find picnic tables and barbeque facilities. Walk past the picnic area and the dirt path takes you through a reasonably steep bush walking trail, which is OK for people with moderate fitness, but is not accessible for wheelchairs and strollers etc. The paths take you straight to the Buderim Falls and the high arch bridge spanning the creek above the actual falls. This is a very popular and beautiful spot.
