A Hike in the Tamborine Nationalpark # 1 Curtis Falls and Cedar Creek Falls

in #travelfeed5 years ago

Yesterday, after two days of rain, we thought it´s a good day to spend in a nearby Nationalpark. Tamborine Nationalpark consists of 14 sections from which we´ve only visited 3. One section, the Witches Falls section was declared in 1908, making it the first Nationlpark of Queensland.

Gestern, nach zwei Regentagen, dachten wir, es ist ein guter Tag, um in einem nahe gelegenen Nationalpark zu verbringen. Der Tamborine Nationalpark besteht aus 14 Abschnitten, von denen wir nur 3 besucht haben. Ein Abschnitt, der Witches Falls Abschnitt, wurde 1908 zum ersten Nationalpark von Queensland erklärt.

First we went to the Joalah section with it´s Curtis Falls. We were really hoping that the rain was enough to see some water in the falls.

We went for the Lower creek circuit walk, which is 2.5km return and takes you about 1 hour. It´s an grade 4 walk, so not suitable for everyone but not really hard. The walk begins in a wet eucalyptus forest, which was good since it was already warming up.

We reached the Falls pretty early and were disappointed as there was almost no water running down.

Zuerst sind wir zum Joalah Abschnitt mit den Curtis Wasserfällen gegangen. Wir hatten wirklich gehofft, dass der Regen genug war, um etwas Wasser in den Wasserfällen zu sehen.

Wir machten uns auf den Weg zum Lower Creek Circuit, der 2,5 km lang ist und ungefähr 1 Stunde dauert. Es ist eine Wanderung der Klasse 4, also nicht für jeden geeignet, aber nicht wirklich schwer.

Wir erreichten die Wasserfälle ziemlich früh und waren enttäuscht, da fast kein Wasser ablief.

From there on it went downhill to the Cedar Creek. The track consists around 100 steps and since it´s a circuit you need to walk them up again. But as said, it´s not to hard.

There were these massive trees everywhere with lots of birds in it. The sound of this forest was absolutely amazing. There was not only one second were it was quite.

Von dort ging es bergab zum Cedar Creek. Die Strecke besteht aus ca. 100 Stufen und da es sich um einen Rundkurs handelt, muss man diese wieder hochlaufen. Aber wie gesagt, es ist nicht zu schwer.

Überall standen diese massiven Bäume welche voll mit Vögeln waren. Das Geräusch dieses Waldes war absolut erstaunlich. Es gab nicht eine Sekunde, in der es ruhig war.

Arrived at the creek the picture was unfortunately the same, hardly any water. But that was to be expected. But the atmosphere down there was really mystical. Unfortunately, pictures cannot express how nice it was there.

Am Creek angekommen war das Bild leider dasselbe, kaum Wasser. Aber das war ja zu erwarten. Dafür war die Atmosphäre dort unten wirklich mystisch. Bilder können hier leider nicht ausdrücken wie schön es dort war.

From that point on it went uphill again. But the environment remained the same, huge trees and ferns everywhere.

Ab diesem Zeitpunkt ging es wieder bergauf. Aber die Umgebung blieb die gleiche, überall riesige Bäume und Farne.

Back at the top we had a quick look at the Cedar Creek waterfalls before noon. Unfortunately due to the lack of water relatively unspectacular. But the view was great.

Oben wieder angekommen schauten wir uns vor dem mittag noch kurz die Cedar Creek Wasserfälle an. Leider bedingt durch das fehlende Wasser relativ unspektakulär. Aber die Aussicht war toll.

Springbrook is also amazing! Fingers crossed for some more rain!!

Stunning place :) Looks like traveling in time (to the prehistoric era).
