Tree work in Pinbarren
Hill slopes and vines along Six Mile Creek
Noosa Council's trail notes describe a route through the rolling green hills of Pinbarren on the way into the rainforest and tall eucalypt forest of Tewantin National Park. On ground like that, a tree often stands on a slope where a truck cannot pull up beside it, so limbs are lowered in pieces and moved to a chipper set up on firmer, flatter ground.
Down on the creek, a council environment grant in June 2026 funded Noosa and District Landcare to remove invasive cats claw creeper and madeira vine from properties in the Pinbarren section of Six Mile Creek. Both climb into trees, and a heavy vine load hides dead wood and adds weight to the crown, so a creek-side job often starts by cutting the vines away to see what is underneath.

Pinbarren questions
Road repairs and the Six Mile Creek reserves
How do the hill roads cope with heavy rain?
Not always well. Noosa Council's flood recovery work has included a reconstruction project to repair damage at nine sites on Upper Pinbarren Creek Road. After wet weather the road is confirmed open before heavy gear is booked, and trees on the hillsides are checked for lean or for ground that has slumped.
Who manages the bushland along the creek?
Parts of it are council reserves. The shire's open space data names the Six Mile Creek Bushland Reserve in Pinbarren, in two parts, along with the Croziers Bushland Reserve. On lots that adjoin them, trees on the boundary are confirmed as private before work starts, and the growth along the reserve's creek edge is left alone.
