Sunshine Plaza, a retail centre located in Maroochydore on Queensland’s Sunshine Coast in Australia, has lodged a development application with Sunshine Coast Council for a high ropes course as part of a AU$400 million redevelopment currently underway.

On completion, the location will be home to the first and largest high ropes course at a major regional shopping centre in the country, incorporating a 21m high viewing deck and 10 ziplines with the longest one at 130m across Cornmeal Creek.

The managing company Lendlease’s head of retail Gary Horwitz said: “The high ropes course brings a future dimension to the shopping experience with an entertainment offer that will attract locals and visiting tourists.”

Adventure high ropes specialist, Trees Adventure, will design and operate the installation.
