A little abut Montville: It would be hard to find a town on the Sunshine Coast that is more charming than Montville. Perched high on the Blackall Range, this pretty village is home to hand made craft shops, art galleries, quaint eateries and lovely boutiques where you'll find everything from handknitted socks to original works of art. There are plenty of places to stay around town, including rainforest hideaways, luxury resorts and rustic cottages.
Dating back to the late 1800s, Montville is close to Kondalilla National Park - a wonderful place to go hiking, walking, and have a picnic. There is access to the Sunshine Coast Hinterland Great Walk from Montville - a trail that stretches 58 kilometres and affords panoramic views of the coastline and hinterland.
