Up early (5am) to walk into the gorge before it got too hot
And to allow time to continue onto Eungella afterwards
Up onto the range with a huge expanse of sub tropical rainforest with views down into the pioneer valley
We went on a couple of circuit walks through the rainforest.
As well as stopping off at the various view-points we stopped off at the Platypus viewing platform on the Broken River but there again we weren’t rewarded with any platypus sightings.
After coffee and cake at the kiosk there, we headed back down to the Bruce Highway through Eton just north of Sarina, where we had our picnic lunch and refuelled for the long drive south to Rocky.
We didn’t go into Rocky though but turned off to Yeppoon and camped at the Beachside Caravan Park at Yeppoon.
We had only just set up camp there when we had visitors. Tancie, Kerry, Frances and Martin drove down from Emu Park to see us, with Martin driving.
Another pleasant (except for the Mozzies) evening with the sound of the surf crashing in the background. We even had a bandicoot come and visit!!!
