A trip to Australia’s Top End is one of the truly unique travelling
experiences and locations in one of Australia’s most unique environments. July
is arguably the best month for a walking holiday in the Top End as the
temperatures are cooler and the recent rains that cease after April still have
the watercourses flowing and the vegetation thriving. This trip is fully
accommodated. We will also be using a luxury mini-coach for transport and all
Park Trek meals will feature lots of local organic produce.

Lamington National Park, in the south east of Queensland, is a walkers
paradise. Once we’ve picked you up from the Gold Coast then we have only a very
short distance to cover before we make a start on a full and satisfying five day
walking holiday. The area has such an extensive network of trails. Included in a
days walk are pristine waterfalls, spectacular escarpments that turn molten gold
in the setting sun and dense and rich variety of plant and animal life. And to
make the trip extra special we’ve chosen to stay at the famous Binna Burra Lodge
and O’Reilly’s Guesthouse to create a wonderful walking experience.

A genuine favourite of ours. One day you find yourself having lunch in a
narrow gorge surrounded by 150 metre high cliffs and the next you’re gazing over
the wave like ranges of the Flinders from the peak of St Mary’s.
There is
tremendous diversity in scenery and a great variety of experiences awaiting you
on our trip into the Flinders Ranges. It’s also one of our most sociable trips
with the evenings spent sitting around an open fire taking in the atmosphere and
enjoying excellent food after a day of stimulating activity.

October is a lovely time to venture into the Croajingalong National
Park. Our trip begins with two nights at the Point Hicks Lighthouse followed by
two nights at Karbeethong Lodge, overlooking Mallacoota Inlet. Whether it’s the

rust coloured granite boulders, or perhaps watching the sun setting from the
balcony of our lodgings, there are memories here to last a lifetime.
