outdoor petrol
From $60
The Sunshine Coast has one karting venue and it is a good one. Big Kart Track in Landsborough sits just off Steve Irwin Way and has been a fixture of the region for years. It is an outdoor petrol track with a 4.4 Google rating and a circuit that gives you enough length to properly open up the karts. The track caters to everyone from young kids on their first ever go-kart experience through to adults who want to push hard and set fast times. They run a few different kart sizes to match different ages and experience levels, so the whole family can get involved. Landsborough is a handy spot for most Sunshine Coast residents. It is roughly central between Caloundra and Noosa, and the drive inland from the coast only takes about 20 to 30 minutes depending on where you are starting from. There is plenty of parking on site. The Queensland weather means outdoor karting works pretty much all year. The hinterland location means it is usually a couple of degrees cooler than the coast too, which is a bonus in summer. Rain can wash out outdoor sessions, but that is the trade off with an outdoor track. Big Kart Track runs birthday party packages and can handle group bookings for corporate events or bigger celebrations. If you are visiting the Sunshine Coast on holidays and want something different from the beaches, it is a solid option that keeps kids and adults entertained for a couple of hours.
