Maleny, Mountain town in Sunshine Coast Region, Australia
Maleny stands at 436 meters above sea level on the Blackall Range, with clear views extending to the Glass House Mountains and Sunshine Coast.
The region transformed from a timber production center in the 1920s into a dairy farming area, marking a significant shift in local economics.
The Maleny Music Festival brings together musicians, market vendors, and performers at the Showgrounds for three days of entertainment in November.
Located 95 kilometers north of Brisbane, Maleny receives 2,000 millimeters of annual rainfall, making it among Queensland's wettest inland locations.
The Sculpture on the Edge exhibition at Flaxton Gardens displays indoor and outdoor art pieces during its annual showcase in November and December.
