Getting there:

Head to Boreen Point along McKinnon Drive, turning right into Louis Bazzo Drive. As you enter Boreen Point, the road takes a sharp right into Laguna Street, but turn left into Lake Flat Road and follow this for 2km and on a left hand bend, you will see the gravel road into Habitat Noosa Everglades Ecocamp on your right. The public car park is on the right just before the private campsite, where all the walks start.

Maps:

Cooloola Recreation Area .

Route/Trail notes:

The walk start across the gravel road from the car park and is well signposted. Mostly on mown tracks and fire trails, this flat easy stroll zigzags out to a clearing where there is the memorial. Return by the same route.

Permits/Costs:

None.

Other References/Comments:

Have your swimmers and a towel handy, as following the short track at the back of the car park will get you to a sanded area beside Lake Cootharaba.

Great little walk to such a peaceful place. Did this late afternoon & saw lots of kangaroos out grazing.

Beautiful walk with some great but sad European settler history. Lots of wildlife.

Packed up camp and headed out to do this last walk before heading home.

Very easy walk. So sad to read so many young children passed away between 1874 to 1890, no tombstones making the graves just the boulder with names carved in it.

Checked it out on way back to car park, only an extra 1.3km of very easy flat maintained fire track.
