trips around townsville

G'day Johnsy, you didn't say if you wanted to stick to the dirt or get back on the black top for a while mate. If you want to get back onto the blacktop for a rest, head north out of Townsville, through Ingham and Cardwell [be hard to get past there] and deposit yourself at Etty Bay just south east of Innisfail. there is a van park there that is right on the beach, a shop, and not much else. the rain forest comes right down to the beach. Set yourself up with a six pack [or more] and you will never want to leave.

thanks old soldier that sounds like heaven and dirt has more appeal to an old bushie like me .you go to sleep when its black dont u.cya johnsy

There's quite a few old logging roads west of Paluma and Ingham. I've been told the area around Mt Fox is nice. A bit futher north is the "Vally of Lagoons", and Blencoe falls (west of Cardwell) is worth a trip, but avoid peak season or it's hard to find a campsite (bush camping only). Get the Hema map of the area and look for the dotted roads :)

Big bend in the Burdiken and red falls(great basalt wall np) are good . go up the harveys range road till you hit the gregory developmental rd turn left. where that rd crosses the burdiken on the left is bush camping.
Good fishing too.
