Pioneer Bridges Camping Reserve

The Pioneer Bridges camping reserve is in a pleasant location, next to Ovens River with tall trees that provide good shade. A great place to relax beside the river suitable for swimming and fishing. The camp area has pit toilets and is well located a short distance from the Great Alpine Rd, Everton township and the Murray to the Mountains rail trail.

Lake Samsonvale

Reviewed By kpiddy - Brisbane, Australia

Lake Samsonvale is roughly a forty five minute drive North of Brisbane City, it is a perfect place to go to get away from suburbia and enjoy a lakeside walk, picnic, barbeque, fish (with a permit) and in certain sections of the lake paddle craft is allowed. No swimming is permitted. Vehicle access to the lake is best via Forgan Road with car parking available at Forgan Cove, Forgan Park and Bullocky Rest. On the afternoon of our visit we parked at Bullocky Rest and enjoyed the stunning lake views with a cuppa before heading out along the trail to Forgan Cove and back. A small section of the trail follows the road from Forgan Park to the intersection of Gorgons Crossing Road. Only glimpses of the lake could be seen along the trail, which was disappointing, I observed the occassional wooden plank for seating along the track, bring water and wear a hat to enjoy this neighbourhood of Moreton Bay Shire.

Kumbartcho Sanctuary & Nursery

Reviewed By Loz310 - Brisbane, Australia

Went along just to see what the area now offered. It had been about twenty years since I last visited. Very pleased to see how well the area was being kept by the local council and volunteers. Particularly happy with the variety of bird life I saw in the sanctuary and along the river. The is also an information centre and nursery.

Bribie Island Butterfly House

Reviewed By T2873WIpatriciat - Brisbane, Australia

A visit to the Butterfly House at Bribie Island is a wonderful experience. You can spend as long as you like and be amazed by the number and assortment of butterflies to interact with in the enclosure. You also get to learn about the life cycle of the butterfly and see different caterpillars. Kids would love this and I feel it would give them a good idea of how important it is to save our beautiful environment. How exciting to have a butterfly land on you! The volunteers here do a great job and profits are donated to charity.
