Meeting by the boat ramp at Fishermans Paradise, the route for this guided walk includes riverside, bush, village tracks and streets. You'll hear stories of natural environment, flora and fauna (and some surprising local history!) as they wander along the river's edge, through tranquil casuarina forest and via village streets and tracks with binoculars handy for a closer look at the abundant birdlife. It's likely they'll also see kangaroos and eastern water dragons (and fish jumping in the river). They'll also visit a favourite fishing spot with fabulous views over the river, ideal for photos reflecting the bush in the afternoon light.

Bushfire update 2023
Much of the lovely riverside walk was untouched by the 'Black Summer' fires of 2019/20, but sadly most of the casuarina forest was burnt. The tracks have now been cleared and re-opened, and it's wonderful to see signs of regeneration and lots of birdlife around. They will share stories of that challenging bushfire season with you on this unique guided walk.
