2025 Mount Tamborine Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in June)

#Nature attractions Come see the hundred-year-old trees in Tamborine National Park in Gold Coast, Queensland, Australia. The city is famous for its beautiful beaches, but it also has a large forest for hiking, camping, or even forest bathing, which is an interesting tourism trend. That is, escaping the chaos of the city to open your senses to receive energy from nature to recharge your body and mind, such as seeing green, seeing interesting plants, hearing birds chirping and leaves rubbing against each other, touching the ground instead of concrete, and inhaling the smell of nature. In this park, there is also Curtis Falls, which is clean and pure water with beneficial minerals. We will see water trucks coming to get water from here to make bottled mineral water for Australians to drink.

Came here in late autumn with my partner to see the autumn leaves. It’s been many times we came to Tambourine Mountain but the first time here in the Botanical Garden. We’re here during the weekday, so very quiet and peaceful. We walked around and felt we’re like walking into a Japanese garden once we saw the Tori here. Although it’s a bit late for the autumn leaves but we still saw the beautiful garden with different sorts of flowers and trees. We also visited the nursery garden and bought a few plants home. Just enjoyed the visit and if you haven’t been here before like us, definitely recommend this to you! #good gor family #no admisdion fee

My partner and I had a short trip in Tambourine Mountain and we came here for breakfast before we headed back home. We both ordered the traditional breakfast, one with bacon and one with sausages. For drinks, I had a flat white and my partner had a cuppacinno. As the weather was pretty good on that day, so we picked a table outside as we both liked watching people and the happenings around. The breakfast was hot, good in portion and tasty. The coffees were good too, so we really enjoyed our breakfast there. #reasonable price #good location

Yes, up in Tamborine, Queensland you will find thousands of these wild birds especially if you’re dining out alfresco!" Tamborine has some interesting shops and restaurants to say the least, but his “Polish Place” had beautiful views and tasty dumplings! What’s more there is also a viewing platform to look at enjoy some incredible views. The weather wasn’t too sunny, but I imagine when it’s sunny the views must be breathtaking! 📍To get there, it’s suggested to drive - there isn’t any public transport that I saw whilst exploring this place with friends. 💰Lunch at the “Polish Place” was reasonable considering the location and environment - check out their traditional polish dumplings! #travellater #traveltheotherside #theotherside #travelwithme #nature #australia #queensland #tamborine #lorikeets #birds #food #urbanexplorer

The Australian glowworms are actually the larvae of certain fungus gnats. These soft-bodied, wingless creatures emit a blue-green bioluminescence from their tails, transforming dark spaces into dreamlike wonderlands. These glowworms thrive in damp, dark environments, often dwelling in groups within underground caves, rainforests, streams, and valleys. In Australia, you can encounter these magical glowworms in several regions. Among them, Natural Bridge in Springbrook National Park on the Gold Coast is the largest glowworm habitat in Australia. The natural cave, formed by river erosion into a "bridge," provides an ideal home for glowworms. Tamborine Mountain Glow Worm Caves in Brisbane is the only man-made cave in Queensland that can be visited during the day. The artificial cave features stalactites and stalagmites, adorned with twinkling glowworms. 🕘 [Opening Hours] The best time to view glowworms in their natural habitat is at night from October to December each year. However, at Tamborine Mountain Glow Worm Caves in Brisbane and some specific scenic spots, you can also view them during the day. The specific opening hours vary for each attraction. For example, Springbrook National Park on the Gold Coast is usually open all day, but it is recommended to visit after sunset for glowworm viewing. The Tamborine Mountain Glow Worm Caves are generally open from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm. It is recommended to spend 1–3 hours on a visit. If you are participating in a tour that includes multiple attractions, it may take half a day to a full day. Please note that when entering the caves for viewing, be sure to follow the visiting hours specified by the scenic area to avoid disturbing the glowworms. ⛺ [Things to Do] -Cave Exploration: At Natural Bridge in Springbrook National Park, Tamborine Mountain Glow Worm Caves, and other locations, enter the caves along designated trails. In the dim light, observe the marvelous sight of glowworms twinkling like stars up close. At Tamborine Mountain Glow Worm Caves, you can use special infrared flashlights to clearly see the glowworms' sticky threads and shimmering bodies, and learn about their feeding habits. Please refrain from making loud noises during the visit and turn off strong flashlights to avoid disturbing the glowworms. -Rainforest Hiking: Hike through the rainforest in areas such as Morton National Park and around Purling Brook Falls. Along the way, look for glowworms in tree trunks and rock crevices. During the hike, professional guides will explain rainforest ecology and introduce the plants and animals that coexist with the glowworms, such as the seasonal luminous mushrooms (near Purling Brook Falls). Wear comfortable, non-slip hiking shoes and follow the guide's instructions to prevent getting lost or injured. -Night View and Stargazing: Some glowworm viewing tours include viewing the surrounding night scenery and stars. At the restaurant of the Thaberl Mountain Resort on the Gold Coast, you can overlook the glittering night view of the Gold Coast and explore the night sky with high-powered telescopes. At the paragliding base, you can find unique constellations such as the Southern Cross in the clear night sky of the Southern Hemisphere. 👉 [Itinerary] -Nearby Attractions: -Gold Coast Area: After viewing the glowworms, you can go to Surfers Paradise to experience the fun of surfing and enjoy the sun on the lively beach. Visit Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary to get up close with Australian animals such as koalas and kangaroos. -Brisbane Area: Tour the Brisbane River and enjoy the city scenery on both sides by boat. Visit the Queensland Cultural Centre to experience the charm of art and history. -Sydney Area: Go to the Blue Mountains in Sydney to admire the magnificent Three Sisters peaks and experience jungle trekking and cable car sightseeing. -Cairns Area: Go snorkeling or scuba diving in the Great Barrier Reef to explore the colorful underwater world. Visit Kuranda, a charming town, browse the unique markets, and take a sightseeing train or cable car through the rainforest. 🧡 [Pre-trip Preparation] -Clothing: Prepare clothing according to the local season and weather. When viewing glowworms at night, the temperature in the mountains or rainforests is lower, so it is recommended to bring a warm coat. Wear lightweight, comfortable shoes suitable for hiking, such as sneakers or hiking shoes. -Equipment: Bring a flashlight, preferably one with a red light mode, to avoid disturbing the glowworms with strong light. Prepare a power bank to ensure the battery of electronic devices for taking pictures and lighting. -Other Items: Prepare mosquito repellent, as there are many mosquitoes in the rainforest area. You can bring a small amount of snacks and drinking water, but be careful not to litter in the scenic area. If participating in a tour group, confirm the meeting time, location, and itinerary details in advance.

We went to see the sunset at Tamborine Mountain. The sun set at 5:30pm, so we arrived about an hour before. 🌄 It was a weekend, so there were quite a few people, but we had plenty of time, so we were lucky to be able to park smoothly. Everyone brought picnic sheets and spent their time relaxing. There are also toilets. 🚻 It was a little chilly in April, so I thought it would be good to bring a thin hoodie. The sun went down and down, and even after it sank, it was still beautiful. I'm glad I had the wonderful experience of being able to see only the sunset in such a wide view in the middle. ✨ If it's a sunny day, I'm sure you'll be 100% satisfied! After the sun went down, applause erupted 👏🏻😂 #TamborineMountain #australiatrip

Visited the Mount Tamborine Skywalk and got to enjoy blue skies and sunshine over the treetops as well as spotting some wildlife on the forest floor with a water dragon and a loghopper. It was a great day out and a massive contrast to the city, although Brisbane isn't too bad. Pineapple tours were great, not only did they undercut others on the price, it included entry to the glow worm cave as well (unfortunately no photos allowed?#mounttamborine #queensland #skywalk

📍Cedar Creek Falls in Australia This is a popular spot where you can feel the great outdoors! About an hour by car from the city 🚗 Private parking available We brought snacks and drinks, put down a mat near the river and had lunch 🥪 It was still chilly when we went in September, so we recommend going in November to February during the summer season in Australia ✨ There are stairs to the river so it's safe, but if you want to go to the bottom you have to walk up a little slope (no stairs), so it's best to wear comfortable shoes! I went in sandals, so I only walked barefoot on the slope lol 🗺 Cedar Creek Falls 📍76 Cedar Creek Falls Rd Tamborine Mountain QLD 4272 Australia #Australia #Waterfalls #River

It was close to French wine. If anyone goes there, don't forget to stop by and taste it and buy some to drink at home. You won't be disappointed.# # mount Tambourine winery

Amazing views and greenery, the hike was around 1.5hrs long and perfect for beginners. Mount Tambourine has the freshest air to breathe. The wildlife is incredible and diverse.

"The Gold Coast has 300 sunny days, only 65 days may rain" Just so happens, we encountered 1/65 🙈 In the drizzling rain, it's more suitable to visit the local wineries 🍷 Tamborine Mountain Winery A winery that has won countless awards, using local specialty fruits to make wine. These green organic fruits, as if infused with soul, are refreshing under the irrigation of rich red volcanic soil and fresh mountain spring water. I like this Acacia liqueur, which is very smooth as a base for cocktails🍹.
