The Scenic Rim Walk offers a rewarding way to explore one of Queensland’s most striking natural landscapes. Set within the Great Dividing Range, the Scenic Rim is a vast region shaped by ancient volcanic activity, where World Heritage-listed rainforests, craggy peaks and sweeping valleys form a remarkable walking destination. This guided, pack free journey takes in three diverse National Parks, each with their own geological stories, ecological richness and panoramic views.
Each day presents a different trail, beginning with the scenic Yellow Pinch Track to Cronan Creek Falls in Mount Barney National Park. The next day climbs through Main Range National Park, with rainforest paths leading to the heights of Mount Cordeaux and the open outlooks of Bare Rock. On the final day, walkers venture into Mt Mathieson’s forested trails, where relics from early timber years sit beside natural lookouts with views across Cunninghams Gap. The walk concludes with a celebratory lunch and wine tasting at a local vineyard.
Evenings are spent at Boonah Valley Cabins, where guests can relax and enjoy warm hospitality and locally sourced meals. With expert guides and flexible walking options, this pack free experience allows travellers to immerse themselves fully in the stories, scenery and stillness of the Scenic Rim. It is an ideal escape for those seeking meaningful connection with nature, where each step offers fresh perspectives and lasting impressions.

Self-Guided Packages – Terms & Conditions
Our Self-Guided Packages are designed for travellers who want the freedom to explore independently, without the hassle of planning every detail. Each package follows a tried-and-tested itinerary that includes a combination of pre-booked services, such as accommodation and transport, and optional group tours or private experiences. You’ll have the flexibility to discover each destination at your own pace, with the confidence of having essential logistics taken care of and access to local support if needed.
Accommodation Flexibility
We understand that every traveller has different needs, so our itineraries offer flexibility in accommodation. You can choose from a range of hotels, from 3-star options to luxury 5-star properties, in most locations. If your first-choice hotel is not available at the time of booking, we will offer you an alternative of similar standard, quality, and location.
Travellers are welcome to customise their accommodation preferences before confirming their booking. If you’re unsure about the best options for your travel style, our team is happy to recommend alternatives.
Booking On Request
All packages are offered on request basis. In most cases, a deposit may be required before we can secure accommodation and services.
Once we receive your deposit and booking enquiry, we aim to confirm your package within 24 hours (longer if weekends or public holidays apply).
If your preferred travel dates are not available, we’ll suggest the closest alternatives or offer a full refund of your deposit.
Dynamic Pricing
Many of our accommodation providers and local suppliers use dynamic pricing models, which means prices fluctuate depending on factors such as demand, travel seasons, and availability.
Our listed “from” prices represent the lowest available rates based on low season travel with full availability. When you request a quote for your preferred travel dates, we’ll provide an accurate, up-to-date price based on availability at the time of quoting.
Prices may vary between the time we provide a quote and when you confirm your booking. Should there be any price differences, we will notify you before final confirmation and payment.
Itinerary Order & Availability
The order of your itinerary, including accommodation, tours, and transport, may be adjusted to secure the best availability and ensure a smooth travel experience. While we strive to follow the proposed itinerary as closely as possible, changes may be necessary, particularly during peak travel periods or when bookings are made close to your departure date.
For bookings made well in advance and outside of peak seasons, itinerary changes are uncommon. Any adjustments will be communicated to you in advance and are made with the aim of maintaining or improving the overall experience.
The final itinerary—including the order of your activities and accommodations—will be confirmed after your booking is secured.
