Sightseeing

The water is always cool, the turtles and friendly and the waterfall massage is free. Just 8kms away it’s worth a look. Warning, the rocks are slippery as you enter the water. Have fun

We love skating near the lake, having bbqs with friends and cooling off in the beautiful Ti Tree Lake. Well to be honest, the water gets rather warm so it’s a fun place for an evening dip.

Hike

You could visit simply to take in the scenes but this walk gets me motivated to stay active. The trees are beautiful, the air is clean and the waterfall is epic (pending rainfall of course). Take your runners, a water bottle and your camera.

This hike is a little challenging towards the peak. The type where you pull yourself up using a chain. Maybe not for those who are scared of heights. But seriously a great walk to get the blood pumping and to clear the lungs. Love it! BBQ facilities and drop toilets are available. Otherwise stop off at Mt Warning Rainforest Cafe for lunch 😋

Brewery/ distillery

These friendly guys take you through their regenerated bushland where they pick the botanicals used in their gin. They were wonderful and allowed us to take a cheeseboard to enjoy on their deck while we consumed their tasty gin.

Best beaches

This is seriously a picturesque beach and this image doesn’t do it justice! Note: limited parking so pack you gear for a few hours and set early. If you get a car park then you’ll have rather a private beach. Warning: Rangers are fierce and will fun you if you park outside the designated areas.

Cafe

Tasty food, good cocktail, great coffee and friendly staff. T If you visit the pub after, you can catch the courtesy shuttle bus home. Save yourself the walk up the hill😉. This place is a nice relaxed local for breakfast, lunch or dinner. Local musicians are often set up twice a week.
