ITINERARY:
Day 1
Departing Cairns
we travel south to one of the most beautiful waterfalls in
Queensland, Josephine Falls! Here we stretch our legs on a
700 metre interpretive walk into the waterfall, which is sourced
from rain that's fallen upon Queensland's highest mountain,
Bartle Frere. Cool off with a swim and check out the natural
waterslide.
We stop at
the highest waterfalls in the Tablelands, Mungalli Falls for
a picnic lunch (included) and then a short distance away spectacular
Millaa Millaa Falls. Your guide will help you search for platypus
at a 'secret' location! You'll need to be quiet to see one
of these shy and elusive critters.
We visit the
volcanic crater lake of Lake Eacham. This 60 metre deep lake
was formed an estimated 12,000 years ago when molten hot magma
rose to the surface causing a massive explosion! The lake
is now fed by an underground spring which gives it a deep
blue appearance. Join your guide on a one hour interpretive
walk around the lake through dense rainforest and amongst
thousands of birds and other wildlife inhabitants. You may
see the world's smallest kangaroo or ask your guide about
the special turtles found here! There's even time for a quick
dip.
A short distance
away is the famous Curtain Fig Tree, estimated to be 800 years
old and standing 50 metres tall. Admire the magnificent branching
system that gives this tree the sprawling effect of a massive
theatre curtain.
We then wind
our way back to Cairns via the Gillies Highway, where we'll
finish the day at one of the local bars with a cool drink
and the opportunity to re-live a great day.
