Survival Camps and Expeditions with QCCC
QCCC Expeditions offers journey-based and solo programs at unique locations, making the most of our facilities and their spectacular surrounds. Expeditions programs are a great choice to draw out leadership skills, develop team cohesion and maximise personal and spiritual formation in the outdoors. We work with schools, youth and corporate groups to tailor-make remarkable and unique expeditions-style programs to suit your needs and objectives.
Survival Camps:
QCCC has established a highly sought-after Survival & Bush Camp Experience, now offered at the Cobb and Co (9-Mile Creek) Campgrounds. Just minutes off the Bruce Highway between the Sunshine Coast and Gympie, this modern and comfortable camp venue gives us more than 100 acres of natural playground to continue our delivery of survival-style programs. The property enjoys multiple private and scenic camping zones and a range of survival-themed activities, backed up by basic infrastructure for some creature comforts if the weather gets tough. Comfortable glamping tents are also available for hire for teachers and accompanying adults. Our Survival Program include options such as navigation, camp skills, fire-cooking, search and rescue, raft-building, team challenges, bush food and shelter building, or use the full scale of the property for safe, self-contained solo programs..
Sunshine Coast Hinterland Great Walk:
QCCC Mapleton has off-road access to trailheads on the famous Sunshine Coast Hinterland Great Walk. Incorporating private and exclusive camping on our new 20-acre farm in Mapleton, Flaxton Hall (formerly a Scouts Camp) and a farm property on the gorgeous shores of Baroon Pocket Dam, this expedition traverses the Maleny-Mapleton Plateau and Blackall Range. View the tumbling cascades of Kondalilla Falls, cool off by a rainforest rock pool or experience the meandering Obi Obi Gorge. Be enthralled by the ever-changing scenery as you traverse this dramatic terrain using the Aboriginal songlines established to access the historic Bunya Festival, the largest gathering of people on the Australian mainland before colonisation. You’ll discover a pristine environment with refreshing water holes, dense rainforest, an abundance of birdlife, and breathtaking views and scenery.
