Way back….I was searching for a water fall in Tamborine National Park but ended up in Cedar Creek Section instead! There was a waterfall there {luckily} but it wasn’t the one I was aiming for, guess that’s the fun part of seeing Australia – exploring areas and trying to find new places to see.
Tamborine National Park ::
Yes there are huge Eels in the water, yet the don’t seem to mind the swimmers, and you can see them swimming in and out of their homes – they live in the edge of the rocks in the water. There was a guy in the water who was trying to catch one to show our Kids up close and personal, but the eels out smarted him every time!
Not sure why it closes and locks Carpark Gates for different times of the years?
What I remember about Tamborine National Park – it was hot! And the footpath down was easy going until you got to the section of the waterfall – that was a bit more tricky! And all of the four Children that I had that day decided to take a track that was not the easiest to get back up so I ended up having a great work out. After climbing back up and walking to the car we were all very hot and sweaty, so again we found a Water Playground to cool off at. There sure is a great variety of them around in Queensland, and for that matter also in New South Wales.
I also remember that the car park was very busy that day, I had to wait for a car to pull out so that I could park, and many cars were pulling up on the side of the Roads leading down to the car park to find a spot – not sure when is the right time of the day to avoid the car park issues! Oh and make sure you lock your cars, apparently they have break ins in the area.
Maybe one day we will get back up that way, and maybe one day I will find the waterfall I was searching for, mind you I can’t remember what it was called!! Will have to see if I can re-find it on google and add the place to our “Bucket List”
Have You Been To Tamborine National Park?

Lucky there was a waterpark for you to cool off in afterward Lisa. It is so much easier exercising when the weather is cooler.
