With all the wide open space and facilities to enjoy, it's very clear why Little Mountain Common Park has become a local community favourite - an excellent family leisure destination.

Educational bike/scooter track
There are an abundance of
new children's playgrounds popping up every day on the Sunshine Coast and families head to these new facilities
en masse. One tends to forget and/or neglect the 'old' parks, which are all special little gems in their own way. The day we visited it was intermittent rain and except for a few dog walkers, we had the park totally to ourselves. If you are looking for somewhere less busy, then head to one of these
Learn to Ride Parks on the Sunshine Coast and enjoy some family time out, away from the crowds.
