An Ancient Rainforest Escape

Step into a world of misty mountain peaks and ancient wonders. Departing from Airlie Beach, this eco-certified day trip takes you deep into the lush Clarke Ranges to discover the spectacular Eungella National Park. Known as the “Land of the Clouds” by the local Aboriginal people, this breathtaking region boasts Australia’s longest continuous stretch of subtropical rainforest. 🌿

Spot the Elusive Wild Platypus

Eungella is one of the very few places in Australia where you can witness the unique platypus thriving in its natural habitat. With a little patience, you will have the rare opportunity to spot these shy, fascinating creatures swimming in the pristine waters of Broken River. 🦦

We will stop for lunch at the iconic Pinnacle Family Hotel, where you can relax and purchase one of their famous Pinnacle pies. This stop is at your own expense, giving you the flexibility to choose from the menu or bring your own picnic lunch if you are travelling on a budget or have specific dietary needs.
