Springbrook in the Gold Coast hinterland is just 45 minutes from the beaches. A forest wilderness formed by the eruption of a volcano 23 million years ago.You’ll see views across an ancient land, waterfalls that tumble down into the depths of the canyon, cool rock creeks that flow into the coolest swimming holes and some of the oldest trees in Australia.
Beneath the canopy a weird world opens up – strangler figs, epiphytes, rare birds and even rarer plants, glow-in-the-dark mushrooms, massive vines that tangle in the trees, boulders as big as houses and mossy fern groves where you’ll find fascinating little creatures. And the walks are something else.
