My gf and I love bush walking & we’d want to know some great walking tracks around the Queensland area.
You will really love Springbrook on the gold coast hinterland, it is absolutely beautiful there and quite a number of tracks to do at different waterfalls.
The other ones are Glasshouse Mountains and then you have the ones on the Sunshine coast hinterland.

You might like to try geocaching! You’ll discover trails that you never knew were there. Go to http://geocaching.com.au/
There’s an excellent podcast that I listen to every week from Australia. http://geotalk.libsyn.com/rss

O’reily’s is a nature retreat. And it is fantastic. Honestly. The only problem is the car ride up there. If you get carsick easily, I wouldnt even attempt it.

I think O’Reilly’s and Binna Burra have some of the best rainforest walks in Queensland. If you want something more tropical, then walk behind Noosa, there are heaps of tracks.

I live on the Whitsunday Coast in North Queensland. There are some great walking tracks around here, through Conway National Park and Dryander State Forest. One particularly nice ones takes you through rainforest up to a lookout where you can see across to the Whitsunday Islands – BEAUTIFUL!

Queensland’s Environmental Protection Agency has established some great walking tracks through some of our best National Parks.
There are six in all, ranging down the east coast. Here’s their website for more information.

Have a great time!
