Crows Nest National Park

Crows Nest is located approximately 2.5 hours from Brisbane, the route we took had us pass through the townships of Kilcoy and Esk. This was our first trip in our new Duet so we were keen to try everything out. We were very happy with the camping grounds and had plenty of room to manoeuvre the van and it was so nice to have everything set up in 20mins. We did the 4.5km walk to the Koonin Lookout and were not disappointed with the views over the valley. The walk took us via the Kauyoo Pools, The Cascades and The Crows Nest Falls. We were all on the look out for the Brush-Tailed Wallaby but the only wildlife we saw was a Bushy-Tailed Possum. ( and the joey below). The scenery was lovely and there was an abundance of wattle in bloom which added a lovely contrast to the bush and steep rocky gorge.

The lady camped next to us was a wildlife carer and the kids were lucky enough to feed and pat a joey.
