OLLERA CREEK FAMILY ADVENTURE

Ollera Creek Family Adventure – Waterfalls & Cascades Exploration

Join us for a relaxed and scenic day out as we explore the beautiful Ollera Creek corridor, nestled in the heart of Paluma Range National Park. This family-friendly adventure is perfect for nature lovers of all ages, offering a chance to discover a series of stunning waterfalls, gentle cascades, and crystal-clear swimming spots.

We’ll follow the picturesque creek line north of Townsville, with the option to walk along the trail or directly through the creek —depending on the group’s comfort and energy levels. Our journey may even take us all the way to Butterfly Falls, one of the hidden gems of the area, if the group is feeling up for it!

Expect plenty of opportunities to splash, swim, and soak in the serenity of this lush tropical landscape. Whether you’re hopping across rocks, wading through shallow pools, or simply enjoying the sights and sounds of the rainforest, this day promises fun and adventure for the whole family.
