Heritage Park was created for the enjoyment of Noosa Parkland residents and the Noosa community.
Regular park users already know that Heritage Park is a unique asset to the Noosa Community.
We are asking Council for Resident consultation before the final Management Plan is drawn up.
A place where children and families can relax, play games and explore clean, creeks without boundaries like our children were able to do.
The Heritage Park Recreational Area
Heritage Park is a natural reserve nestled between Tewantin National Park and the Noosa Golf Course and was designed as the recreational hub for Noosa Parkland residents and comprises 20 hectares of parkland.
The recreation area is in a parkland setting with 7.3 hectares of the parkland designed and landcaped by members and associates of the School of Enviromental Studies, Griffith University.
Help improve YOUR community ...it belongs to you.
Over the past nine years, Heritage Park Tewantin seems to have been neglected by successive councils.
Noosa Parklands is at the quiet end of Noosa. Unless we keep council up to date with maintenance issues we could be forgotten.
