Rainforest, Fraser Island & Brisbane
Lamington National Park, Gold Coast Hinterland
The Gold Coast is a place of wonderful contrast and complement. Journey through a patchwork of rural plantations, vineyards, farmland and livestock estates on the way to more than 100,000 hectares of National Parks and reserves, networked with miles of enchanting bushwalking trails. Quiet country roads, just 30 minutes from the beaches, lead into canyons and valleys with their hidden secrets of natural wonders.
Step back in time on a bushwalk at Green Mountains. The regent bowerbird, rufous scrub-bird and Antarctic beech tree are species that have survived since prehistoric times. Waterfalls, wildlife and a wonderful network of walking tracks; little wonder Green Mountains attracts hundreds of thousands of visitors each year.
Take photos of crimson rosellas in the picnic area. Look into the rainforest canopy on the O'Reilly's Treetop walk. On the Python walk, listen for the masked mountain frog’s 'popping' call.
Fraser Island
Fraser Island is nature at its awe-inspiring best, gathering together a remarkable collection of environments. Drive along the highway of sand on the ocean beaches or explore the sandy tracks that lead through thick forest to secret lakes, hidden in subtropical rainforest, their glassy surfaces reflecting the vegetation and deep blue sky. Under the shade of majestic satinay and brushbox trees, crystal clear freshwater flows silently over sandy creek beds.

Sophisticated and progressive, dynamic and diverse, Brisbane delivers on all fronts. Visitors and locals alike delight in the very best in food, wine, arts, entertainment and major sporting events, all surrounded by a unique environment of relaxed sub-tropical flair. There's exciting shopping, a buzzing nighttime scene, and no end to the range of outdoor adventures on offer, such as sailing, surfing, hot-air ballooning and 4WD excursions.
You'll also find this region to be a hotbed of creative free thinking, with local artists, musicians, writers, jewelers and fashion designers all making their name on the international stage. At the same time, this is a place without pretension, a city with its feet planted firmly on the ground. And that's exactly what so many people love about Brisbane. From the sun and sand drenched islands in the east, to its cool and crisp mountain rainforests in the west – and all the attractions of a vibrant, modern city in between – Brisbane offers the best of both worlds.
