The post Waterfall Wanderers 1 Day Atherton Tablelands | Cheap Az Travel appeared first on Cheapaztravel Staging.

]]>
Firstly Waterfall Wanderers travels south and discovers the majesty and beauty of north Queensland’s most iconic waterfalls. A must see for anyone wanting to experience pristine rainforest, cascading waterfalls, stunning panoramas of Queensland’s highest peaks and maybe a glimpse of rare and unique native wildlife.

Secondly you will visit and be amazed by the legend of Babinda Boulders. Steeped in Aboriginal history of trapped spirits and a tragic love story that will chill you to the bone. Next, your morning swim beckons amidst the lush rainforest and cascading crystal clear waters of Josephine Falls. A natural waterslide awaits the young at heart, while the spectacular backdrop provides photo opportunities and wildlife spotting. Josephine Falls is a unique opportunity to slide down a waterfall on a natural rockslide. Sure to make even the crankiest traveller crack a smile.

Millaa Millaa falls

Thirdly Journey on to Australia’s most iconic waterfall Millaa Millaa Falls. Made famous by Qantas and Herbal Essence (hair shampoo) commercials. This 18m single drop waterfall lies in the heart of the Wet Tropics World Heritage listed rainforest. For lunch, we will take you to Australia’s largest timer pub. And fill your belly with some good old fashioned country cooking. Then it’s back into the waterfalls.

Mount Hypipamee, the Crater and Dinner Falls, and wow most importantly 3 great things in 1 location! Here you will have the opportunity to take a bush walk, swim behind a waterfall and gaze into an 85 meter deep volcanic crater. And if that’s not enough, we quite often see the local Cassowary here too.

As the afternoon starts to roll on, we head to the Curtain Fig Tree. Here 15 meter high tree roots tower above, like a 3 story building; keep your eyes peeled for the elusive Lumholtz Tree Kangaroo.

Lake Eacham

Just before our last swim spot. We will take you down to a quiet little creek to search for Platypus. And then off to our last stop of the day at Lake Eacham.

Lake Eacham is a dormant Volcanic Crater lake filled with turtles and surrounded by wildlife. We’ll watch the sunset over a truly spectacular day, having our last swim together. And don’t worry about getting cold, the water in here never changes temperature, 23 degrees all day all night.

Waterfall Wanderers will provide morning and afternoon tea, lunch, tea, coffee, hot chocolate, biscuits and fruit throughout the day, as well as heaps of games and puzzles to keep you entertained on the bus.
