it is amazing to walk through so many different biomes. Binna Burra is World Heritage Area and should stay that way. I went on a 15km bush walk along these trails with my Grade 12 High school Geography class and it was fantastic. Rugged yet well maintained trails, beautiful plants; amazingly tall trees. I learnt that Australia has the tallest trees in the world, while America has the biggest (Widest base) trees. Spectacular views, tranquil sounds, and attractive, fresh smells. The high altitude made the day a very cmfortable temperature and humidity was low. We went on the walk a couple of weeks ago while we were staying at the delightful Binna Burra Mountain Lodge.

Read moreBinna Burra to O'Rielly's via the Border Track. 21.4km(that's a half marathon) in 7hrs(exactly as signs suggest), with pack full of camping gear. Picturesque rainforest hike, well marked, gentle gradients and occasional impressive coastal and mountain views. Very easy when it's dry but might be a bit muddy when wet. Sunset drinks and dinner at O'Rielly's bar and camped at Green Mountain walkers camp sites, which we had all to ourselves and the cheeky birds. Caught O'Rielly's bus back to Binna Burra the next day to...
