Mapleton is home to the gorgeous Mapleton Lilyponds, which is a park with picnic tables under the shade, plenty of grass for kids to run around as well as a playground with a flying fox.

If you are looking to travel further afield, head out to Mapleton Falls National Park, a smaller national park within the Sunshine Coast region. By far, the most popular attraction are the falls themselves. Formed by Pencil Creek, Mapleton Falls plunge 120 metres into a valley in the below eucalypt forest. In the spring and summer months, you may hear frogs who live in the rocks around the pool below. There are two main walking tracks within the park and picnic facilities beside the park.

The Mapleton township also has a post office, take away food stores, restaurants, cafes and a pub. Mapleton accommodation options range from bed and breakfasts, cabins, a caravan park and self-catering lodging facilities. Click the link below to find the best accommodation deals in Mapleton.
