The Sandy Creek Centre is hidden within the natural beauty of St Mary's State Forest and is located 40 mins from the City Heart of Maryborough.  Begin your journey from Maryborough, heading towards Biggenden along the Maryborough-Biggenden Road. Take the left hand turnoff sign posted "Thinoomba Road", "National Trail" and "Sandy Creek Centre".  Travel 12 kilometres along the unsealed Thinoomba Road crossing over the old railway line, passing the St Mary's Road turnoff (this will be on your left hand side), cross over Black Steer Creek and follow the left hand bend and the sign towards Tiaro.  Near the crest of the next ridge you will see the Sandy Creek Centre  sign and entrance gate on your right.
