GET INVOLVED!  Closes August 22

Queensland Ecotourism Trails are ecologically sustainable opportunities that aim to deliver environmental, social and economic benefits to Traditional Owners, regional communities and to Queensland.

The Cooloola Great Walk is an existing 102-kilometre walking and camping experience that links Noosa North Shore with Rainbow Beach on the Sunshine Coast. As part of the Queensland Ecotourism Trails program, the Cooloola Great Walk is an opportunity to enhance and complement one of Queensland’s iconic long-distance walking experiences, attracting new local and international visitors.

Shortlisted Tourism Operators have been announced as the project moves into the Request for Detailed Proposal stage. In partnership with Traditional Owners, Tourism Operators will be able to provide experiences such as guided walks and operate low impact eco-accommodation, in addition to the existing public walkers’ camps.

Community members and interested stakeholders are now invited to share their ideas and suggestions for a new ecotourism offering along the Cooloola Great Walk.

Queensland Ecotourism Trails is a program facilitated by the Tourism Development Projects Division at the Queensland Department of Innovation and Tourism Industry Development.
