Tully Falls National Park
This Tully Gorge trip was a tough exploratory bushwalk through giant house-sized boulders, caves, swims, and underground waterfalls. Although the full loop was abandoned, the day delivered scrambling, adventure, and a memorable taste of this wild gorge.
Paluma
After years, Luen finally explored Williams Creek with Debbie and found the small falls he had long suspected were there. A fun off-track day of ridgeline walking, creek hopping, rainforest scenery, and a swim.
