Eine Kurzanleitung zum beliebten Curtain Fig Tree, Yungaburra, in der Region Far North Queensland Tablelands. Erkunden Sie dieses unglaubliche Naturwunder bei einem kurzen Boxenstopp in der Nähe der Crater Lakes. Der unglaubliche, 500 Jahre alte Curtain Fig Tree in Yungaburra ist einer der am meisten unterschätzten Boxenstopps auf jeder Reise in die Hochebenen. Der sehr kleine Curtain Fig National Park liegt nur wenige Kilometer von Yungaburra entfernt und ist wirklich ein verstecktes Juwel, das den meisten Besuchern unbekannt ist, aber eine stolze Ikone für die Einheimischen der Tablelands. Wo ist der Vorhangfeigenbaum? Sie finden diesen einzigartigen Feigenbaum im Curtain Fig National Park, nur 2 km westlich von Yungaburra am Gillies Highway. Achten Sie auf Schilder zu einer Abzweigung zur Fig Tree Road, wo Sie einen Parkplatz am Straßenrand in der Nähe der Promenade finden. Was Sie beim Besuch des Vorhangfeigenbaums erwartet Vom Parkplatz aus gibt es eine kurze 180 m lange Schleife und einen erhöhten Holzsteg, der zum unglaublichen Curtain Fig Tree führt. Der Holzsteg führt um den Baum herum, was bedeutet, dass Sie aus fast jedem Winkel einen guten Aussichtspunkt haben. Obwohl dieser Nationalpark sehr klein ist, scheint es, als würde man fast schon beim Betreten in eine prähistorische Juralandschaft versetzt. Die Geräusche tropischer Vögel hallen in einem weiten Amphitheater aus Dschungelranken und verdrehten Wurzeln wider. Dies ist wirklich ein magischer Ort, der einen Besuch auf einer Reise in die Tablelands wert ist. Dieser besondere Feigenbaum wurde aufgrund der 15 Meter hohen Luftwurzeln, die vom Blätterdach auf den Regenwaldboden herabfallen, Vorhangfeige genannt. Der Baum ist fast 50 Meter hoch und hat einen Umfang von 39 Metern. Vorgestellt in: 22 tolle Dinge, die man in den Atherton Tablelands unternehmen kann Wie alt ist die Vorhangfeige? Obwohl es schwer zu sagen ist, weisen die meisten Quellen darauf hin, dass der Curtain Fig Tree etwa 500 Jahre alt ist. Wie ist es entstanden? Direkt unter dem Baum befindet sich eine sehr informative Tafel, die den Vorgang besser erklärt, als ich es kann. Aber im Grunde wurde der Yungaburra Curtain Fig Tree gebildet, indem er in der Rinde eines bestehenden Baums keimte und Wurzeln im Boden wuchs. Einmal verwurzelt, wächst die Würgefeige schnell und tötet dabei den Wirtsbaum.

A Lumholtz's tree kangaroo (Dendrolagus lumholtzi) in Yungaburra, Queensland, Australia

For all I had to be at my most responsible, competent, and organised to help my brother, spending a lot of time calling mechanics and discussing autoelectrics- we had a blast. We're great friends and hadn't seen each other in years.

He is out of the pit, and in a month we rendezvous with our sister (us three in the same place for the first time in three years!). Much progress was made.

We ate the finest, cheapest tropical fruits and cackled at the shaming of the guilty. We worked a few days on an organic sweet potato farm, visited a coffee plantation, and drank a bottle of mango wine. I *shudder* became accustomed to XXXX because the interstate folk don't know what's up.

I saw animals I've waited my whole life to see, amd marvelled at how all of Australia was once rainforest. We picked up a stray dog at the crater lakes and surrendered them to a vet. Alas, it was dry season and I didn't have the QLD green- treefrog- in- shower moment.

We mountain- goated across boulders, and I fulfilled my lifelong ambition of swinging from a jungle vine in aid of the goating. We had a driftwood fire on the Kaba beach and camped in a very eccentric tent belonging to our sister. One night I led a lost drunk girl who didn't have a phone through the dark mangroves back to camp... and when I went back to smoke a joint in there, the board walk vibrated ominously.

We inspected the pools at the top of Davies Creek Falls in the dark, and only realised the next day that they're 70m tall. We screeched to a halt for a frog crossing the road, and saw a platypus with uncanny ease at the platypus- viewing hide in Yungaburra.

I stood leaning on the rail of the Fitzroy Flyer and let the Coral Sea wind blow through me, up my nose and into my soul. That attempt to see some of Nyurrbing was ultimately a very expensive day on the beach in the rain (a cheerful one, though). We had silly cocktails on a tropical island from Foxy's.

A lucky sea- step penny I've had since Orkney in (er..?) 2016 mysteriously vanished, replaced by a 5c piece from the great Biboohra River. My rosary blessed by its waters, and my "home" solstice hallowing water my best offering.

I met Daintree bogans and greened out on their medical weed in Cape Tribulation. My brother was with me, and those guys were great, but I felt how easily something terrible could have happened. I thought I'd broken my nose.

I was sensible and didn't try the Queensland psyllocibins available in the caravan park's drug shop. Open 7-9pm daily and run by a metal head Bush Doof Jesus, it is frequented by Lenny the bandicoot (who was stolen then returned, seen crash- bandicooting in a cage on a skateboard!). I got a blow- by- blow account when my caravan- mate had a chocolate full of "penis envy" mushrooms.

I marvelled at being in Hippy Land, the way it was reflected in supermarkets and pharmacies. The Kuranda markets were a lot of fun. I saw plenty of irresponsible van- life animal husbandry, and was disappointed how strong white dreadlocks still are. I became disgusted by their fire twirling antics (kerosene on the beach of the Great Barrier Reef?!), beautiful as it was. Someone stole a plastic spoon which was holding our caravan window open, and you couldn't trust them around your dish detergent!

I read a trippy N.E. QLD magazine called Connect (it was the LGBTQIA+ edition and friends, I don't know how offended to be). Full of ads for white plastic shamans and barramundi animal messages.

I twice glued the boots which had been re- heeled before the trip. Their soles peeled the minute we got to Kaba Kada. What was once dappled grey is now dyed by the red, red Yidinji soil of the farm. They're treasured now (and at the cobbler).

I stitched tourist patches into the duffel bag which is slowly catching up to my old sticker- covered case that perished coming back from Aotaeroa. I was that tourist who bought a crocodile tooth, and dreamt with it under my pillow.

For my last night I painted my nails pink to watch Barbie in Australia's oldest operative cinema. We spoilt our dinner with popcorn and snakes, and saw one last waterfall.

I came home to Tarndanya and saw it anew... a changed woman (not that Barbie had anything to do with it).

The Yungaburra Avenue of Honour is a fitting tribute to our Veteran Community and its lakeside location offers many a place of reunion as well as silent reflection throughout the year.

Josephine Falls

Josephine Falls is a place full of fun, the sights are stunning, the water is cool, and the rocks form a natural waterslide you could spend hours sliding about on.

Facebook Twitter Instagram YouTube When my tour guide Noddy told us she was taking us to Josephine Falls, she described it in two words, Natural Waterslides. This prompted more questions from us, but Noddy kept schtum. By the time we arrived the excitement had built up in the coach, so we were surprised when the doors opened in a car park and were surrounded by… lush rainforest. No hidden…
