Of course #brisbane and the #goldcoast are definitely well known destinations in #queensland but #australia is such a huge country. And after spending all this time looking at the mountains that surround this town (Beaudesert) I headed inland the first chance I got. No destination in mind, just headed for hills.

Pretty amazing landscape and not what I’m used too. Dry and hot plains but also mountains, rain forests and rivers.

Flanagan’s Bush campground.

I drove off the main road and ended up following a dirt road to Flanagan’s Reserve Bush Camping #flanagansreserve Amazing! I told the guy in the office I ended up there by chance (he laughed) and wanted to take some photos.

He was welcoming and friendly as and pointed out an area where platypus live.

I didn’t see any but knowing they’re there in their natural environment is pretty special.

Loved it here and I need to go back and stay a few nights.
