Port Douglas Microlights

Reviewed By H3689ZXstuartb - Brisbane, Australia

Spectacular, superb.. Feel the breeze as you climb above the Port Douglas. . This is just amazing open air just you and the pilot. They haven't fared well with Covid 19 and social distancing as you have to sit close to the pilot. But sights are spectacular. We flew both North to Mossman and back south of Port Douglas spotting Turtles, Crocs and an amazing waterfall - Keep it up guys

Birdsville Races

Reviewed By alotagoodtimes - Brisbane, Australia

Finally made it to the iconic outback races held in Birdsville every year. A great adventure, the drive in the outback and meeting lots of people from all over the country. Lots to see and if you take your time the small towns along the route have their own parties so you can break up the trip. Birdsville is a small town approximately 1400km West of Brisbane, Queensland.

The Bump Track

Reviewed By WorldTravla7 - Cairns, Australia

I tackled the Bump Track with a local hiking group on the weekend of Port Douglas Carnivale. It’s a fairly challenging hike with a steep uphill section for first 1.5 km, then undulating for next 3.5 km to Robbins Creek. (350 metres elevation in first 2 km). You need to cross Robbins creek and if you’ve got boots you’ll want to take these off as you’re feet will most definitely get wet. Approx 500 metres beyond the creek we took a side track to Big Mowbray Falls (this track is more narrow and took about 45 mins each way to the top of the falls). Here you can swim/cool off in the water and look out over a spectacular gorge opening out into rainforest. This side track isn’t far from the end of the Bump Track. Total Walk was around 15km if you do the side track (marked by pink ribbon, which I managed to miss the first time round). 12km just for Bump Track. I saw a black snake basking in the sun on the way back and apparently these are a common sight (I believe they are venomous). The Bump Track has a rich history (as an aboriginal trail and as a link for the early settlers to the hinterland by horse and cart) and there are plenty of info plaques on the way if you’re interested. To get there, drive a few kms south of Port Douglas and turn left just before the Mowbray Bridge down Mowbray River Road. Keep going down and turn onto Connolly Rd and continue until you get to the end over some dirt road sections.
