Mary Cairncross Scenic Reserve Discovery Centre

A remnant of subtropical rainforest covering 55 hectares in the Sunshine Coast Hinterland, overlooking the Glass House Mountains. Walking tracks thread beneath the canopy, where red-legged pademelons, whipbirds and frogmouths keep to the undergrowth. The Discovery Centre and its diorama cover the reserve's plants, animals and geology, alongside ecological education for schools. A café, playground and barbecues sit near the entrance.
