Beerwah State Forest

The Beerwah State Forest is located on the Sunshine Coast, just a one-hour drive north of Brisbane. The Beerburrum and Beerwah State Forests are located on both sides of the Bruce Highway.

Also known as “Jowarra”, the Beerwah State Forest protects the few remaining coastal rainforests in the region and is an important habitat for threatened or endangered Australian wildlife.
