The drive wasn't that bad if not for the so-called "NeverLost" that led us down a couple of dead ends...
Our 1st stop at Cedar Creek Winery where both the Glow Worm Cave and Frog Hollow are located.
The glow worm caves at Mt Tamborine were built to help in the preservation of glow worms whose habitats have been diminishing due to climate change and human impacts. It was an informative tour as we learnt what exactly are glow worms, why they glow and their entire life cycle from an egg to an adult.
Being able to experience the glow of light created by these tiny little creatures in an entire caves of darkness was indeed amazing.
We also visited the Frog Hollow next door where the kids were introduced to more than 10 different species of Australian Frogs. They had lots of fun trying to spot those well-camouflaged frogs who blended in so well with their surroundings.
Daddy suggested checking out the new eco-adventure which is a tree top walk in the rainforest of Mount Tamborine, just a few minutes drive away from where we were.
The Tamborine Rainforest Skywalk has lots of beautiful rainforest canopies, flora and fauna. The entire walk took us approximately 45 minutes and totals about 1.5 km.
It was a pleasant surprise that both the kids enjoyed the little hike, especially Ash who managed to complete it on her own with no fussing at all! Bet the wonderful weather played a huge part in her good mood! My poor legs suffered though... Haha!
