However\, because Gemfest utilises specific pavilions and outdoor zones within the grounds\, layout can vary by event. We recommend contacting the Nambour Lapidary Club directly at nambourlapidary@hotmail.com to confirm the most direct accessible route and parking arrangements for this year’s specific floor plan.\n\nThings to Do in Nambour\nIf you’re coming to Gemfest\, Nambour has plenty to offer\, from peaceful nature spots to well-known local attractions. \n\nCliento Park: This quiet subtropical rainforest in Nambour has a short walking track to the hidden Robinson Falls. It’s a great place for a picnic or a relaxing walk in nature.\nThe Big Pineapple: Just a short drive away in Woombye\, this famous landmark is worth a visit. You can ride the Pineapple Train\, check out the observation deck\, visit Wildlife HQ Zoo\, or try the Tree Top Challenge high-ropes course.\nLocal Exploration: Nambour also has a colourful street art mural trail and unique vintage shops in the town centre. These are great ways to experience the local culture at your own pace.\n\nPublic Transport:\n\nTrain: Nambour Railway Station is on the Sunshine Coast line. The Showgrounds are about a 5-minute drive or a manageable walk from the station\, but keep in mind the walk is uphill.\nLocal Bus: Translink runs bus services in Nambour.
