Description:

Venture into Tamborine National Park as evening falls and the rainforest comes to life. With the Southern Cross high in the night sky, trek to a hidden waterfall. Here, luminescent glow worms illuminate the cliffs, twinkling like magical, earthbound constellations.

After you're picked up from your hotel, venture toward the hinterland, where dense rainforests hug the hillsides above the coastline. In a luxurious 4-wheel-drive vehicle, ride to the top of Tamborine Mountain. Gaze up at the starry sky—the Southern Cross is always visible at this latitude—and out over the distant city lights of the Gold Coast.

Warm up over a cup of coffee, tea, or hot chocolate and some sweet desserts, and then set out for a guided rainforest walk. In the darkness, the tropical forest buzzes—lyrebirds call, insects chirp, and the leaves of towering eucalyptus rustle overhead. As you walk, your guide provides insight into the unique plants and animals that call this ancient ecosystem home.

Arrive at Curtis Falls, a peaceful cascade tucked deep within the forest. Around the waterfall's misty lagoon, a colony of glow worms thrives. Admire the sparkling spectacle of these radiant, blue-green insects, suspended like luminous orbs above the rocky pool, before you leave this incredible nocturnal vision behind.
