Tamborine Mountain
A mountaintop village in the Gold Coast hinterland, where a rainforest skywalk, a gallery street and wineries make a good one-day loop.
Tamborine Mountain lies about 35 km inland from the Gold Coast at an altitude of roughly 500 m, and is the most popular day-trip destination in the hinterland. Gallery Walk is lined with craft shops, cheese and chocolate workshops and cafés. The Tamborine Rainforest Skywalk (fee required) lets you walk at canopy height and descend into the gorge. The Curtis Falls walk is free and takes about 30 minutes return. The mountain also has several wineries, breweries and a man-made glow-worm grotto. Public transport is limited, so drive (about 45 minutes) or join a day tour. The mountain roads are winding, so drive with care.
