National Parks and Reserves
Paluma Range National Park, the southern gateway for the Wet Tropics World Heritage Area. Mount Spec straddles the summit and escarpment of the Paluma Range, rising 1000 metres above the Big Crystal Creek floodplain.
The upland rainforests are crisscrossed by a maze of streams and cascades. Open eucalypt forests dominate the lower slopes and casuarinas fringe the clear creeks.
Set up camp at Big Crystal Creek and enjoy the series of waterholes and cascades at the end of the Rockslides walking track.
Take in the views from McClellands and Witts lookouts, or take a stroll on the Cloudy Creek walk.
Admire the 1930s stone bridge over Little Crystal Creek. Escape the summer heat by picnicking near the creek before slipping into the one of the many cool waterholes.
Take the Birthday Creek Falls walking track through rainforest to the top of the picturesque cascades on Birthday Creek.
