25.01.2022 Good morning everyone! Not as cold this morning with 5c at ALW headquarters! Wow what a stunning sunrise captured by Alan Carmichael, looking towards Mt Bartle... Frere ;) The current weather chart has a large high [1028 hPa] east of Tasmania extends a weak ridge across western and northern Queensland, while a broad low pressure system remains slow moving off the New South Wales Coast. The combination of these systems will maintain a cool and relatively dry southwest to southerly flow across most of Queensland. A broad upper trough is moving across southern parts of the the state today and tomorrow generating some high cloud, though no rainfall is expected.

24.01.2022 Trails to Treasure with Arthur Green Yunguburra Loop. Estimated time 1.5hrs with a few rest stops. Avid cyclist and Atherton resident, Arthur Green, shares some... insider information You will need transport to Yunguburra and water supply. Park car in town, in Main Street or somewhere near the park. Ride along Gillies Highway towards Atherton. Make sure you stop at Petersen Creek to spot the platypus. Cross bridge on the pedestrian path and then turn left up the Curtain Fig Tree Road. This is uphill so suggest you ride single file stopping at the Fig Tree for a rest and a good look around the tree. When you are ready, continue uphill a short distance and on your right you will follow Coleman Road, which is a gravel and grass pathway. Down the hill almost to the farm and Coleman Road continues through the gate. Follow this track until another gate. Be sure you leave gates as you find them and, if chained, ensure the chain is hooked properly. At the end of the gravel track, you will turn right into McKeown Road, which you then follow back to Gillies Highway. Be careful! Here you cross, turn right and immediately turn left into Pinnacle Pocket Road. You are now half way so have a rest and quench your thirst. Follow Pinnacle Pocket Road down to and along the old Kulara Road, (The original Kulara township is now under Lake Tinaroo) turning right into Thomas Road. A reasonable hill to tackle then down to the T intersection where you will turn left back towards Yungaburra. Ride downhill for approximately 1000m turning into the Gumtree on Gillies B & B driveway and onto Williams Lane. Another gate! Go through, locking after you, then ride a grassy trail until the next gate. Again ensure it is locked after you. You are now on the Petersen Creek Walk. Follow the track slightly to your left and cross the creek (walking), turn left then right up the hill towards Penda Street. Before you enter the street, there is a coin donation box on your right. A gold coin donation helps to maintain the tracks so we can walk and ride safely. A few hundred metres up Penda Street, turn right into Cedar Street and you are back in town. Hopefully you can find your car! Relax and enjoy a coffee with extras at one of the popular coffee shops. #AthertonTablelands #AthertonInfo #Yunguburra #TablelandsCycling #TablelandsViews #VisitFNQ #athinfocyclingtrails

05.01.2022 The Atherton Tablelands is home to a variety of natural attractions. The Curtain Fig Tree is one of many. It may seem strange how a ‘tree’ could be so captivati...ng, but you have to see it to believe it! The 500 year old stranger fig tree is heritage listed, and is located near Yungaburra. When you see it you will find it hard to believe that the tree grew from a seed the size of a grain of rice. It’s a great place to stop and be intrigued by nature, and of course a great photo opportunity for Instagram lovers. Be sure to take the time to stop in for a peek. It is easily accessible and does not require a long walk to get to. @lexieonearth Instagram

05.01.2022 YES! Yungaburra is open for bookings, short term stays, long terms stays, romantic overnights or weekly family getaways!
