Their luminous presence will leave you in awe, a truly magical encounter. We'll have 2 chances to see the Fireflies both on Friday night and Saturday nights. The fireflies are only here for 2-3 weeks each year making this encounter a rare and wonderful experience to behold.
Nightfall: Campfire Camaraderie

The camaraderie shared and the stories exchanged around the crackling flames make these moment an adventure in itself and a chance to make life-long friends.
Day 2: Vibrant Views
Our early rises may want to join us for a Mountain Hike. This is a 10km moderate level hike amongst the spring wildflowers. The views on this hike are superb and with the first rays of sunlight, it's like watching a painting come to life. Last time we did this hike we witnessed the super rate and utterly breath-taking Rainbow 'Glory'. Ask us about it. Whilst we can't promise to see it, we certainly will be looking out for it. This hike is optional. For those who would rather not climb a mountain at the crack of dawn, we'll be exploring the gems of the local area - read on.Daytime: Quaint Towns, Local Treasures, Scenic Drives & Vista Views
Our adventure takes you through charming country towns, each one a unique gem in the Scenic Rim's crown.

These moments are an exploration of vibrant local culture.
Evening: Twilight Wildlife encounters
One last chance to see the fireflies for those who want to witness these magic lightning bugs. A Twilight Wildlife encounter is on the cards tonight. We'll be looking out for Bandicoots, Sugar Gliders, Kangaroos and hopefully handfeeding the friendly Possums.
Day 3: Lavender Fields and Rainbow Wings: A Feast for the Senses
As the weekend's vibrant magic nears its conclusion, we've saved some of the best for our final day. After a quick campsite pack up, we'll feed the colourful Kings Parrots, Crimson Rosellas, Galah's & Cockatoo's. There will be time for a quick run down to the Queen Mary Waterfall if you'd like to visit this during the daylight before we head off for our decadent lunch.
