Quick ride by bicycle from Buderim to Mooloolabah

Ready for a sweet Sunshine Coast roll? Start in Buderim, a leafy hilltop town oozing coastal charm and fab coffee—plus some cheeky elevation at 154 metres. You’ll descend out of Buderim, cruising mostly on cycleways and quiet roads (so, a really chill ride!), with some fun rolling gradients but nothing too daunting: just over 50 meters up, but nearly 200 meters of swooping descent. That means more coast, less quad burn!

The surface is mostly paved or concrete, though a few mystery sections keep things interesting (maybe a little adventure?). As you get closer to Mooloolaba, the famous beach vibes beckon. Cruise right down to the Esplanade, grab a bite or a swim, and enjoy one of the Coast’s liveliest spots. All up, it’s just under 16 km, perfect for a morning spin or a sunset cruise. Route highlights? Leafy views, ocean breezes, and a classic finish by the water. Bring sunnies, a mate, and your beach towel!
