1. Best Of All Lookout
Overall Ratings

Reviewed By kpiddy - Brisbane, Australia
This lookout certainly lives up to its name, it was by far the best on our recent day visit to the Springbrook Mountain, the lookout is located on the border of Queensland and New South Wales at the end of Repeated Station Road, Queensland. The path (700 metres return) is accessible to all, no stairs, sealed all the way with a bench seat at the lookout platform. The walk passes through prehistoric forest, checkout the ancient Antarctic Beech Trees 300 metres in on the path, they are protected within the Gondwana Rainforest of Australia World Heritage Area. Signs along the way to say to lookout for Albert's Lyrebirds and Richmond Birdwing butterflies, unfortunately we did not see any. The viewing platform is well positioned on the edge of the escarpment providing stunning views of the escarpment, over the Tweed Valley and down to Mount Warning in New South Wales. The best.

A moderate length walk of around 3 hours at a steady pace. It is recommended to walk in a clockwise direction so to avoid walking up steps. The return journey up the hill is via a more sensible gradient with mostly hiking trail rather than steps. I was disappointed to see a large group of swimmers (mostly late teens & young adults) swimming at the base of the Falls, There are signs declaring this is a No Swimming zone to protect the ecosystem. We walked another 20mins further down to find rock pools where swimming was permitted. Amazing rainforest jungle and extremely interesting walk. Falls were a little underwhelming due to the long drought. I look forward to revisiting after a downpour. Toilets, BBQ's and plenty of parking available at the trail start.

At the end of the Springbrook Mountain Road, Goomoolahra Falls offers clean amenities, an easy 100m walk alongside the waters, to an excellent viewing platform that can extend to longer walks Numerous picnic tables amongst a lush landscape, a worthwhile stop

The War Memorial is a fitting tribute to the local people who lost their lives in war. It's set in a very attractive park and is floodlit at night. We ate our lunch sitting in the park, appreciating the surroundings.

So close to humanity, but a million miles from. A secret enchanted location , fit for a scene from avatar. Mother tree in its natural form , ancient beech trees living together at over 1000m above sea level only half an hour from the Gold Coast . After walking the short 300m to the beech trees , it’s only another 50 m to the best of all lookout , and it truly is . And on your return to you can stop at a number of waterfall lookouts and have a nice morning tea at the fudge shop

A short stop to check out the valley and view back to the Gold Coast in the distance. Park the car, cross the road and you are there in 25 metres. Simple as.
7. Gallery Walk

Reviewed By Bellridge - Caversham, Australia
Amazing road/walk which is completely China’s with souvenir shops, eateries, food, sweetshops, breweries, cheese shops, distillery and even clothing and a cuckoo clock shop. Walk one side, one way and then back the other. Plenty of parking too. And all on one road. Don’t forget to drive further down the mountain. Also check out the Curtis Falls Cafe and The Manor Hotel.
