The Butter Factory Arts Centre in Maple Street, dates back to the early 1900’s and it regularly hosts special art exhibitions to delight the senses and workshops for those after a more hands-on approach.

Cooroy Mill Place provides an insight to the town’s timber origins and is part of an extensive community development, including the hinterland library and the renovated heritage listed boiler and kilns.

THE OLD HAUNTED MILL! Est. in 1908, originally a steam operated mill, Cooroy Mill Place is now home to Cooroora Woodworkers & Cooroy Camphor Laurel. The remaining mill buildings have an interpretive display with its very own ghost!

Back to

NATURE Prepare to be captivated by Cooroy’s breathtaking natural scenery.

Take a scenic drive along country lanes that offer panoramic views of the hinterland. Or experience the scenery and wildlife by taking a hike, riding a horse or doing some mountain biking on one of the Noosa Trails.

Picturesque Lake Macdonald and the Noosa Botanical Gardens are just four kilometres from the centre of Cooroy and the perfect setting for a picnic or leisurely stroll. The lake is home to a myriad of bird life as well as a great spot for fishing and canoeing.

A little further afield is the lookout at Mount Tinbeerwah which is an easy walk. Or climb Cooroora Mountain at Pomona which is a more difficult climb.

WALK ON THE WILD SIDE! Cooroy is home to five of the Noosa Bird Trails and four of the Noosa Trails which are for hiking, BMX, mountain biking and horse riding. A precious home to a variety of native wildlife.
