Other attractions at the Atherton Tablelands apart from waterfalls

This is a photo of the crater walls and the deep small lake at the bottom covered in duckweed at the Mt Hypipamee National Park. It is impossible to take a photo justifying this natural wonder. It is a very tall crater like structure and the pool below which does not look as if it has any water only grass, until you drop a pebble. As the pebble hots the green there is a tiny opening and then the duckweed closes up again.

This photo is taken of a rope course at the Munalli Youth Village at the Munalli Falls. It is a privately owned facility that gets rented out by school groups. The above photo shows a group from Arkansas, USA and they were doing team building at the rope course. Another group was from Townsville. It looked like a wonderful facilty with an obstacle course also.

The Munalli Creek Dairy Factory and tea rooms where I was able to buy some quark. This is a very low fat cream cheese originating in Germany and called turo in Hungarian. Very diffciult to obtain in OZ.

Doesn't this photo look like part of an enchanted forest? A little bit of rainforest leading to, I think, the Pepina Waterfall. I could not resist including it in the blog.
