Things to do in Eumundi

Eumundi grew from timber getting. The first permanent settlers arrived in 1879, town lots were sold in 1890 and the railway came through in 1891. When the timber ran out, dairy and banana farms took over. After many farms closed in the 1960s, new arrivals restored the old buildings, and the open-air market that began in 1979 made the town famous.

Things to do

  • The Eumundi Markets: one of the largest artisan markets in the Southern Hemisphere, every Wednesday and Saturday from 7:30am to 2pm. On Fridays a smaller part of the market precinct trades.
  • Memorial Drive: a heritage-listed avenue of First World War memorial trees, with the market stalls set up under the town's old figs.
  • The market playground, free, beside the markets.
  • The School of Arts hall (1912), heritage listed, near the memorial trees.
  • Eumundi Museum, in the old church on Memorial Drive: the town's timber and farming history. Closed for renovations until December 2026.
  • Point Glorious Lookout, on the back road towards Yandina: views of Mount Eerwah and a 3 km return walk. Buckby Road is unsealed.

Getting there

About 110 km north of Brisbane and about 20 minutes inland from Noosa. Eumundi has a station on the Sunshine Coast train line. On market days there is paid parking on Napier Road.

Did you know?

  • When the railway arrived in 1891, the station was named Eumundi rather than Eerwah, so it would not be mixed up with Beerwah.
  • The town's timber mill opened in 1900 and kept sawing until 1938.

Check opening times and conditions before you go.
