The Big Pineapple has been recognised by the National Trust of Queensland as a national icon in recognition of its significant role in the tourism industry.
Set on 80 hectares The Big Pineapple is a working Queensland pineapple plantation nestled against a sub tropical forest backdrop.
You can experience the plantation aboard the unique train as it tours past exotic fruit trees, sub tropical rainforest and visits the wildlife reserve where you can observe Australian native wildlife animals and birds. These include koalas, wombats, emus, owls and much more. The Animal Nursery is a great children's favourite where they can touch and feed all the baby animals.
Ride on the Nutmobile as it tours leisurely through the mature macadamia orchid. Enjoy the tropical views from the family restaurant while enjoying the famous parfaits and sundaes.
The large gift shop has an extensive variety of souvenirs, jewellery, gifts, confectionery and a unique range of The Big Pineapple jams, sauces, condiments and the famous homemade biscuits, which are made in their very own bakery. The Big Pineapple has various room hire facilities available.
Admission is free to The Big Pineapple. Enquire about the family tour passes or Special Group Concessions.
