Tanawha

Suburb

Take a step back to yesteryear and imagine yourself in the court of King Louis the XIV with a visit to the Sunshine Coast’s very own giant living hedge maze! Located at Tanawha just 10 minutes’ drive inland from Maroochydore, this impressive outdoor maze has been painstakingly sculptured from over 1000 trees and is the only maze of its kind in Australia.

Designed as an eight-pointed star, this botanical marvel can be viewed in its entirety from a platform adjacent to the tea house.

After you’ve completed your mission, challenge yourself further with a tyre maze, rope maze, tile maze or baffle your noggin’ with a brain-teasing puzzle in the café.

The kids will adore finding the seven dwarfs in Snow White’s cottage and bird-fanciers can get to know some new feathered friends with a walk through the huge bird aviary.
Just minutes down the road are more theme park attractions the Sunshine Coast is famous for, so make a day of it and treat the whole family to some outdoor fun!

A wide range of accommodation options can be found nearby at Maroochydore including hotels, motels, resorts, self-contained units, holiday rentals and backpacker hostels.
