Welcome to 2026 and I hope you all had a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year (and made some New Year's resolutions involving hiking like I did AGAIN!).

For the first nature trail hike of 2026, we will start with what should be an easy one around Mountain Creek Reserve on the Sunshine Coast.  The Dad's Community last did this hike in November 2023.

To add a bit of a twist to this one though, I have created a custom AllTrails route that should take in the best parts of this reserve and pretty much combines two of the current AllTrails walks.

This walk is around 5.3 kms and should take no more then 2 hours to complete.

Open for lunch suggestions for after the nature trail.
The Creek Tavern looks okay, unless there are other suggestions.

My Summary :
This walk starts at Esplanade Park and follows Philosophers Walk and the Prelude Drive, Saratoga and Redbud Bushland Parks. The walk then follows the Creekside Trail to the end of Glenfields Boulevard. For the return leg, the walk detours via the Wetlands Circuit and Forest Trails before returning back to Esplanade Park.

The maps for this trails is in the "Discussion" section.
Look forward to seeing you there.
