Cedar Grove Waterhole & Rainforest Walk

This morning we took the kids to the Amamoor Store for ice-creams. We hadn't planned to do anything else but we decided to drive to the end of Amamoor Road to show the kids the Muster site. We didn't go all the way, there was too much gravel road. So we turned in at Cedar Grove camping grounds and drove through just to have a look, but we saw there was a creek and waterhole so we got out to walk down to it. It was absolutely gorgeous. The kids tried skimming stones, then another family came out of the forest and we saw there was a Rainforest Walk there as well. So we walked it, it was only 410m and it was lovely. I love it when we do something totally unplanned and find something totally unexpected.

Mapleton Falls and the Wompoo Circuit Walk

We'd seen the signs to Mapleton Falls and today decided to check them out.
There was a very short walk a lookout over the falls, but the view of the waterfall wasn't great.
The 1.2 km Wompoo Circuit forest walk, however, was lovely.
Isaac wasn't well and complained of feeling like he was going to fall over the whole way.
Ava got a nose bleed.
But apart from that, it was beautiful.


The falls...it's a long way down!

Not feeling too good :(


"See how big this tree is..."

She was not going to get in because there may have been BUGS. But Daddy called her a chicken, so in she went!
