Circuit

Enjoy a 1km stroll through the sports precinct and see some local teams in action.

SUITABILITY
Suitable for all abilities. An easy walk past a variety of sports fields. Road access to all areas.

HIGHLIGHTS
The best part of this walk is the chance to see various sports in action. Archery, tennis, pony club and dog obedience training are some of the activities you pass by on a short stroll from the carpark to the boardwalk beside the dog obedience club.
This little patch of tropical wonderland leads you past the dog club to the archery field. A left turn onto the road leads you past the tennis club down to the cricket field and to the end of the road where the pony club meets. There’s a chance to see the horses in training here before you head back up the road to the hockey fields to the main car park.

AFTERWARDS
Head onto Ballinger road and follow the wide pathway for a longer walk or head into Buderim and explore the shops.

HOW TO GET THERE
To the starting point: The sports precinct is accessible from Ballinger Road.

To the end point: As this is a circuit the end point is the same as the starting point.
