Book excerpt: Within these pages are sprinklings of tropical splendour; a finely curated selection of locally-sourced travel inspiration from Queensland's Tropical North. Stretching more than 1000km down the coastline from the most northern tip of Australia, this region of tumbling waterfalls and exquisite reefs is the first to feature in our coffee table travel series.Here, the planet's largest reef system sits tantalisingly close to the continent, separated by an array of idyllic islands and secluded sand cays. Parting ocean and outback is a rainforest 80 million years older than the Amazon, sprawled over ancient ranges that loom above the seaside. Tropical conditions and natural abundance present a delectable selection of local culinary delights, from mud crab to mangosteen, barramundi to black sapote. We've picked exotic fruits in the gardens of local growers, slept beneath an ochre monolith at a luxury outback lodge, sampled award-winning gins made with locally sourced botanicals and crawled into ancient cave systems deep beneath the Earth to uncover the magnificence of Australia's Tropical North.

Download or read book Djabugay Country written by Timothy David Reis Bottoms and published by Allen & Unwin Academic. This book was released on 1999-01-01 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "From time immemorial, a people called the Djabugay lived in the rainforests behind Cairns in Tropical Far North Queensland. Trade routes from the coast to the lush tablelands and beyond linked established settlements; outrigger canoes voyaged along the coast and out into the Great Barrier Reef." "Today, 130 years after the coming of the white man, the Djabugay are a remnant - their lands taken away from them, their Storywaters partially lost. But they are a remnant determined to make their way in a transformed world." "Djabugay Country is the story of this people and their struggle - what happened to them and how it happened. It takes us from first contact between the rainforest dwellers and the newcomers to the present day. Through accounts of the lives of families and individuals, it shows how out of dispossession and tragedy has come strength and hope."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Queensland’s tropics provide numerous environments for enjoyable walking: lush rainforests, cloud-shrouded mountains, extinct volcanoes, savanna woodlands, and magnificent beaches on the coast and Great Barrier Reef islands. This book brings together more than 150 of the best walks, tracks or trails in Queensland’s tropics, located within the coastal strip between Rockhampton and Cooktown. Walks vary from short boardwalk strolls in the lowland rainforests of Daintree National Park to 4-6 day hiking and camping trips on Hinchinbrook Island. Other routes follow old gold miners’ and forestry tracks or coaching routes or feature historical sites, rivers, lagoons, geological and geographical formations or much earlier Aboriginal communication tracks where Dreamtime stories add a further dimension. Man-made environments of abandoned gold towns, heritage riverfronts, Art Deco streetscapes and Second World War installations also feature. Most routes are best completed during the ‘Dry’ season (May to October) and walked by moderately fit individuals. Most do not require specialist navigation or bushcraft skills. Walks, Tracks and Trails of Queensland’s Tropics highlights the best the region has to offer. Easy-to-interpret maps are included to help you navigate, and the book’s size makes it convenient to carry in the backpack.
