Regular visitors
some of our daily diners, especially since the 2019-20 bushfires took out a lot of their native habitat in the hills behind us, these Rainbow Lorikeets, together with King Parrots, Galahs, Rosellas and other native birds can be viewed from the verandahs of both units.
Beautiful sunset
looking towards the hills behind us....

Granite Falls
just south of Wandandian, pleasant and easy bush track, 10 mins walk from car park along wide track, and ending with metal staircase down to observation deck.... Access from the highway is via a rough dirt road, best suited to 4WD or AWD vehicles. Also up this (Twelve Mile) road is George Boyd Lookout, which includes a lovely half hour rainforest walk around the base of the lookout.
