O’Reilly’s Rainforest Retreat | Lamington National Park

Australia > Queensland > Lamington National Park

Why we like it

The 35km windy mountain drive from the nearest town is your first adventure to the Retreat! Once you arrive, you’re surrounded by the sounds of rainforest birds and the dappled sunlight filtering through the trees.

The retreat offers complimentary guided bird walks, so you can learn all about the incredible variety of feathered friends that call this rainforest home.

Are you feeling adventurous? Take a walk on the Tree Top Walk, a suspension bridge that winds through the rainforest canopy, offering stunning views from a whole new perspective.

But that’s not all! After a day of exploring the rainforest, you can relax by the pool, unwind at the spa, or rejuvenate at the wellness centre.
