Text like this in the body of the page is not output at all, hence we can leave a helpful notice like this for anyone driving past to understand what is going on here.

Our walk will be up Obi Obi Rd and into Mapleton Falls Rd via the Sunshine Coast Great Walk. Once we've seen the falls from the viewing platform we will continue to the 1.3km Wompoo Circuit which winds through rainforest and eucalypt forest, whilst providing views of the 120m falls tumbling down the escarpment from Pencil Creek into Obi Obi Valley. You may like to bring your walking poles as the path is undulating in parts.

On our return to Mapleton there will be a detour through a tree covered pathway and a view across to the coast. I can then promise you some huffing and puffing up a hidden stairway leading back to our cars.

An early lunch afterwards can be purchased from the bakery, cafe or pub .

There are amenities alongside the pub as well as some temporary ones at Mapleton Falls. Bring some spare change as often there are road side stalls selling locally grown fruit and vegies.

What to bring:

Backpack
Walking shoes/boots
Appropriate clothing to suit conditions
Sufficient water (minimum 2L)
Whistle
First aid kit
Sunscreen
Hat
Insect repellent
Walking poles if you have them
A sense of adventure.
