Tamborine Mountain

An artificial glow worm sanctuary that consists of two large chambers interlinked by tunnels. The first chamber is the "presentation cave", where you will be shown an audiovisual display on glow-worms and the construction of the caves. This chamber is complete with very realistic formations (speleothems), such as stalagmites and stalactites, water features and flow stone.

A national park that has lots of short walks that randomly emerge out of the town. It was Queensland’s first national park declared in 1908, features the famous “Witches Falls”, which only requires you to do a 1.5-km walk. Walking tracks are provided in six sections of Tamborine National Park. Most walking tracks are short and can be walked within an hour or so. The walks are relatively easy although some tracks have short slightly steeper sections.

Take a short stroll along this 30-metre tall steel bridge in a tranquil rainforest setting. It's not a very long walk, but there's more to see along the way, including lookouts and some impressive bridges. There is also an eco-centre next to the carpark, which has some great information about Subtropical rainforests.
