It is the first time for me to visit Gold Coast and have chance of walking at Gold Coast Hinterland in addition to walking on the beach "surfers paradies".
I had 3 days walking in Gold Coast Hinterand including Mt Tamborine, Springbrook National Park, and green mountains of Lamington National Park, plus one half day walking at the most easternly point of australian mainland, Cape Byron of Byron Bay of New South Wales.
The tracks at Gold Coast Hinterland is the top one (based on my own experience) walking since Jan 2010.
