Sunshine Coast Trail

The newly developed Sunshine Coast Trail opens July 2010 and features 37 km of nature stretching from Earl’s Cove to Halfmoon Bay.   The trail is about six or seven feet wide on good, stable, flat soils with gentle inclines, offering a beautiful forest environment and incredible views into wetlands, mountains, ocean, creek – coming very close to many of the communities of the Sunshine Coast (and their bed & breakfasts if you’re not a camper)! 

This multi-use trail is open to hikers, bikers, horseback riders and ATV’s and should take two to three days to complete your hiking journey.  “It’s a great opportunity to see the great rugged nature of the Sunshine Coast as you travel from one end to the other.” – Park Planner.
