What visitors mention
The Buderim-Palmwoods Heritage Trail Bushland Park is a shaded 4 kilometre return gravel walk near Mons that follows the old Buderim-Palmwoods tramway line, with historical plaques marking the route along the way.
The rules: Dogs must be kept on a leash for the entire walk. This is a bushland reserve, and Sunshine Coast Council updated its dog rules for reserves and environment areas from 3 July 2026, so it is worth checking current on-leash signage at the trailhead before you set off. Pick up and bin any waste.
What's there: The gravel path is flat with a gentle gradient and has a wheelchair-friendly ramp at the start, plus occasional benches. There are no toilets or water taps on the trail, so bring your own water and a bowl for your dog.
Getting there: The trailhead and a small grassed parking area are at the corner of Mons Road and Telco Road. There is no public transport stop right at the trailhead, so a car is the easiest way in, and the car park is modest in size.

Go early morning or late afternoon to avoid the heat, since parts of the track catch full sun. It is a quieter, shorter alternative to the nearby Tramway Walk section, good for an easy leg-stretch rather than a big outing.
