As we head out of Cairns, you will have a spectacular view over the sugar cane fields, with a stunning backdrop of surrounding Mountains and lush rainforests. Along the journey, you’ll pass Queensland's highest peak: the iconic towering Mount Bartle Frere, while travelling to Lake Barrine teahouse. Marvel at the 500 year old Curtain Fig Tree, the perfect photo opportunity along the way. This is one of the most impressive, gigantic strangler fig trees you will ever see - towering above the canopy at 50m high. The teahouse is a truly beautiful place, located in the Volcanic Crater Lakes National Park, which is within the Wet Tropics World Heritage Area. Lake Barrine boasts an abundance of natural Australian beauty and features a quaint timber heritage tea house perched on the edge of the crystal clear waters of the lake and nestled amongst lush tropical rainforest. Following Lake Barine Teahouse, we make our way through the Atherton Tablelands and stop off for lunch at Mungalli Creek Dairy Farm. Here you will taste some of the best local biodynamic cheeses Far North Queensland has to offer and enjoy the spectacular rolling hill scenery of the Atherton Tablelands. Our afternoon will be spent visiting magnificent falls that cascade perfectly into a pristine waterhole surrounded by lush Rainforest, it is one of the most photographed Waterfalls in all of Australia - Millaa Millaa.

Our morning starts with a National Parks Ranger Guided Chillagoe Cave Tour. Delight in the spectacular caverns and passages decorated by stalactites, stalagmites, and flowstones. Their formation began over 400 million years ago, with fluctuating groundwater slowly dissolving and sculpting the caves. Chillagoe was once an ancient Coral Reef that has been transformed into spectacular limestone bluffs with a network of some 560 caves, while early volcanic activity has created rich marble and mineral deposits. Wander the town to see the Railway Station, Bank Vault, Court House, Police Museum, and Post Office. The tall chimney on the edge of the town is part of the former Ore Smelter. Nearby short walking tracks include Balancing Rock and two Aboriginal Rock Art Galleries. While we are on the edge of Chillagoe town, we will visit Tom Prior’s amazing collection of Ford cars, trucks stored under the galvanized roof of the mechanics shed. This is one of the largest and most geographically remote collections of Ford cars in Australia. There are more than 30 pristine cars and trucks; from a model A to a plastic-protected, red-trimmed white 1970 XW Ford Falcon GT 351c. We will meet with Tom, and marvel at the stories that go with them.

Losing his fortune in the stock market crash of 1987 was the final straw for David Glasheen. After a series of catastrophes, he needed to take drastic measures to restore himself. Opting out of the rat race, he cast himself away on a deserted island off the north-eastern tip of Australia, as far off the grid as was humanly possible. He has lived there ever since. He catches fish, traps rainwater and cooks on an open fire. For company he tames dingoes, meets with friends from the Lockhart River Aboriginal community 40 kilometres away, and entertains drop-in visitors. A great photo opportunity, inspiriting life tale, and chance to have a yard with Dave!

Day 9. Bramwell Station to Cape York Peninsula

The Jardine River Ferry plays a crucial part in getting to Pajinka, as it links the Northern Bypass Road on either side of the river. It is less than 100 meters from bank to bank, and the Ferry itself almost fills that entire distance on its own. For the distance travelled, it is the most expensive ferry journey on earth!

Over the next two days we edge ever closer to our ‘bucket list’ experience, with some incredible 4WD adventure and hidden waterfalls along the way.  You’re in the heart of it all now!

Fruit Bat Falls is a fan-favourite stop along the journey – located off the Tele Track in the Apudthama National Park (Jardine River National Park). It is a broad, natural weir that is croc-free, and a beautiful and refreshing spot to wash off the dust on your Trip to the Tip.
