A Weekend Away in Mount Tamborine: Exploring Queensland with Brisbane Commercial Photographers

The Must-See Highlights on a Weekend Away in Mount Tamborine

Exploring Queensland’s Mount Tamborine with Brisbane Commercial Photographers, LP Commercial Photography

With restrictions slowly lifting in Queensland, now’s the perfect time to plan a relaxing weekend away! My partner and I love exploring Australia, staying at homely Airbnb’s and exploring the nearby attractions, sampling the local food & drinks and immersing ourselves in the experience.

We recently travelled to Mount Tamborine for a long weekend away for my Birthday, staying at a gorgeous Chalet on the Gallery Walk on the top of the mountain. From the moment we walked into “Rest a While” we were greeted by the sound of birds, the fresh mountain air, forests surrounding the area and a gorgeous chalet amongst nature. Entering the space, we immediately felt at home…. with a gorgeous fire, gowns, everything we’d need in the kitchen and a lovely handwritten note from our hosts Narelle and Denise. See some of the little details of our stay below.

What to see in Mount Tamborine

We ventured out and explored the Gallery Walk, visiting a number of businesses. We went to Fortitude Brewing and tried a tasting paddle and their delicious sweet potato wedges, tried the famous home made pies at Mt Tamborine Winery, did a tasting at Tamborine Mountain Distillery walking away with a lovely bottle of Wild Forest Plum Liqueur and finished the afternoon by the fire at our airbnb.

The next day we explored the wineries all within 5-10 mins from the Gallery Walk, Cedar Creek Estate Winery (also where the Glow Worm Caves are which are great to see), Witches Falls Winery doing a lovely tasting in the winery and enjoying the morning sun, and then having an afternoon lunch at The Polish Place with views to die for! After rebuilding after a fire, this business has created a spot you can’t miss with views over the mountain watching the hang gliders jump off the cliff and fly into the valley.

Some other great activities are the rainforest and waterfall walks, we loved Curtis Falls for a nice easy walk with gorgeous views. We also played a round of golf at the gorgeous Mount Tamborine Golf Course which was absolutely gorgeous with its views and fresh air.

We hope this gives you some ideas for your travels and enjoy being able to explore more of our wonderful country now that restrictions are easing.
