Day 1 - Mountain Charm

Upon arrival from either Brisbane City or the Gold Coast, your day starts with a leisurely walk through a rainforest canopy followed by morning tea. Then saunter through the picturesque village of Tamborine Mountain to be introduced to the Scenic Rim at escarpment lookouts, with optional visits to national park and village attractions.

Your afternoon starts when you arrive at a 3½ star retreat in pristine surroundings with spectacular views. Experience the unique atmosphere and the crisp clear mountain air at this cosy mountain retreat nestled in this World Heritage listed national park.

Here you can hike or wander along graded national park trails, winding through ancient Antarctic Beech forest, along exposed escarpments and into heath-land. You’ll be amazed by the rich abundance of birds and other wildlife that inhabit this complex and diverse ecosystem.

After a delightful three course dinner at 6.30 pm and an active day in the rainforest, when the fatigue sets in with the setting sun, it’s time to participate in night time activities which could include a nocturnal spotlighting walk to see native Australian animals, or listen to bush poetry, or simply relaxing in this beautiful mountain environment.
