BOX FOREST CIRCUIT | O’REILLY’S RAINFOREST RETREAT I had originally booked a couple of nights at Oreilly’s Rainforest Retreat as part of an overnight walk from Binna Burra to Oreilly’s (and back again), however an Iliotibial band issue ruined those plans not long after making the booking. I really enjoy spending time up in Lamington National Park…

Although once awarded the ‘second best day walk in Australia’, by Australian Geographic magazine in 2010, the Coomera Circuit sits in number one position as my favourite day-hike. I had been wanting to film this ‘very wet’ 17.5km hike ever since I started hiking in the Gold Coast…

The hike to the Piper Comanche is a hike I have had on my to-do list since last year. Although it is short, it is quite technical. Due to its popularity, there is a quite a well-marked trail now which makes it much easier. The trail weaves through dense…

This weekend I was planning on hiking the Illinbah Circuit (also known as the Gwongoorool Track), however I started late and was trying out some new hiking boots, so I ended up opting for the much shorter Illinbah Track which breaks off from the Illinbah Circuit about two or…

I recently travelled up to Noosa to photograph a home for an Airbnb management company. The next day before heading back to Brisbane, I set out on the Coastal Walk at 4am to film the Coastal Walk and Tanglewood Trail in the Noosa National Park. Surprisingly there was…

I recently headed up to Burton’s Well in the Bunya Mountains for my first solo overnight trip. After a 4-hour drive from Brisbane, I setup camp in the afternoon at the Burton’s Well camping ground and then walked up to the Mount Kiangarow lookout to watch the sunset and capture…
