Scenic Rim Trail Now Open for 2016

With two nights at Canopy Eco Lodge and the final night at the Luxury Lodges of Australia Member Spicers Peak Lodge, this walk sees guests enjoy South East Queensland’s Main Range National Park.

Famous for its stunning collection of mountains, ridges, forest and ancient volcanic plateaus, this 4 day moderate walk covers 33km including a large ascent on day 3. On the final day, guests can relax at the lodge, play tennis, enjoy a spa treatment or take an optional helicopter ride before transferring to Brisbane.

An investment by Australian Walking Holidays in spacious new sleeping tents with decks is a fine upgrade for walker comfort. The Larapinta Trail is now even more extraordinary with the newly upgraded tents enhancing the ultimate Australian outback walking adventure, The Classic Larapinta Trek in Comfort.

The tents are the perfect addition to the three award-winning semi-permanent campsites that were launched in 2013. It’s truly a great place to enjoy the magnificent views of the West MacDonnell Ranges at the end of each hiking day.

Well-ventilated and open, with enough space to stand up in, the tents are 2.2m high with large floor-to-ceiling windows – bringing the outdoors in and allowing you to relax on the new private deck areas. The tents have been selectively placed around the exclusive campsites to ensure maximum privacy and best use of the views.
