Why it's worth checking out

Ben Bennett Bushland Park is a quiet natural reserve in Caloundra, with walking tracks winding through a varied mix of vegetation. Visitors can pass through Melaleuca and eucalypt forests, coastal heath and one of the region’s remaining areas of coastal lowland vine forest, making the park a useful place to experience local plant communities close to town.

The reserve has more than 150 identified plant species and is known as a feeding area for the glossy black-cockatoo. Environmental information along the tracks adds context to the landscape, so the park suits visitors who want a relaxed walk with an opportunity to learn more about the surrounding bushland.

Shelters, barbecue and picnic facilities, and public amenities make Ben Bennett Bushland Park practical for casual get-togethers as well as solo walks. It is located on Queen Street in Caloundra and offers a bushland setting for families, small groups and anyone looking for time outdoors on the Sunshine Coast.
