The view over the Albert River Valley and Moran Go

The view over the Albert River Valley and Moran Gorge from the top of Morans Falls. The waterfall plunges 80 m into the valley below. It’s one of the best short walks from O’Reilly’s Rainforest Retreat in Lamington National Park.

A late autumn afternoon at the top of Morans Falls. The water from the creek here drops 80 metres into the gorge below. In the afternoon the sun slowly dips into the Albert River Valley. It’s incredibly scenic and a perfect spot to just sit and linger.

Gwongurai Falls in Lamington National Park. One of the highlights on the Toolona Creek Circuit. It’s a spectacular walk with countless cascades, waterfalls, creek crossings and ancient rainforest.

Gwongurai Falls on the Toolona Creek Circuit at Lamington National Park. Like many of the waterfalls on this circuit, you can hear the cascading water before you can see anything. After a short stroll from the edge of a switchback you get your first view of the falls. They’re set within a picturesque opening in the forest where dappled sunlight creeps through the canopy. The falls themselves tumble an impressive 15 metres into the stream below. It was one of my favourite places to stop along the circuit.

Frozen tarns after an autumn snowstorm at Tarn She

Frozen tarns after an autumn snowstorm at Tarn Shelf in Mt Field National Park. Exactly 2 years ago today we were in Tasmania on holidays and a series of cold fronts swept across the state. I didn’t know what to expect when I headed up to Mt Field National Park to do the Tarn Shelf walk. When I arrived just after dawn I was greeted by an absolute winter wonderland. Frozen tarns, golden fagus leaves and snow as far as the eye could see. It was one of the best days outdoors I’ve ever had.

A late autumn afternoon at Moonlight Crag. Mount Razorback and The Lost World Plateau rise abruptly, almost like a wave above the Albert Valley below. It’s another great place to catch a sunrise or sunset in the Green Mountains section of Lamington National Park.

A pillar of green beside the track on the Toolona Creek Circuit. It’s not just the waterfalls that are spectacular in this section of Lamington National Park but also the sheer amount of green that surrounds and envelopes you along the walk. It is such a lush forest, teeming with life.

One of the many waterfalls on the Toolona Creek Circuit. Despite being the smallest one we visited it was probably my favourite one. Nestled amongst a sea of green this small cascade folds upon itself before emptying into an emerald pool. It is such a peaceful place 😊

Sunset at Morans Falls on Wednesday 12 April. It would have to be one of the best sunset spots in Australia. A gentle stream running over a sheer cliff with views stretching as far as the eye can see. It is spectacular! 😊
