Adjinbilly, which means place on constant water, is a unique place that is far away from the stresses of city life, nestled into rain forest that boasts fantastic bird life. The comment we hear most often is how quiet and tranquil it is here at Adjinbilly.

Each cabin has its own character and theme. The cabins are named after the original owner’s (Kim) family. Although situated within walking distance from each other they offer seclusion and privacy.

We hope that you enjoy your rainforest retreat, sit back relax and unwind!

CRITTERS/CREEPIES

As you are now in the rainforest you will encounter or hear a lot of rainforest animals. Most are harmless, but be aware that snakes, ticks and leeches are common place at Adjinbilly. To remove ticks place a generous dab of Tea Tree Oil (each cabin has some under the sink!) directly onto the tick, wait for a few seconds and remove using the tweezers ensuring you don’t leave behind the head. Leeches can be removed by spraying with insect repellent. If you are unsure please come and see Julie or Keith for help.

Snakes will leave you alone if you don’t worry them! In case of an accident there is a first aid kit in your cabin. There are several types of plants which sting, including nettles, wild tomates and stinging trees, these can be particular painful and should not be rubbed. Stingoes or antihistamine may be required.

Several birds and forest critters will come and visit your cabin. The satin bower bird loves anything blue and is a regular thief, so keep an eye on your ‘blues’ Native animals are not used to processed food so we do ask that you resist the urge to share you meals with them.

WALKING

Adjinbilly was logged some 40 years ago and as a result there are several logging tracks and trails over the property. Please be aware that these tracks and trails are not marked or graded, and require care at all times. If exploring near the creek make sure you wear sturdy shoes as the creek rocks and waterfalls are extremely slippery.

Condamine River Road (the road you travelled to arrive at Adjinbilly makes for excellent walking with spectacular views of the gorge, wildlife that includes platypus, birds and several varieties of wallaby. The ostriches are farmed by a local family on private property, please respect the owner’s wishes and don’t enter into the fenced paddocks, ostriches can be aggressive especially when mating so be careful!

If you would like to learn more about the wildlife and plants at Adjinbilly, Keith & Julie would love to show you around with an interpretative walk every Sunday morning at 9.30am. Please let us know if you are coming!

If you would like to try a more challenging walk or adventure there are graded walks at Queen Mary Falls about 15mins drive. Mt Superbus boasts its own plane wreck with Lizard Point and Wilson’s Peak offering fantastic views. Guided walks to these areas can be arranged from $25 per person.
