 Stop 1: Lake Barrine – Breakfast by the Crater Lake

Begin your journey with a hearty breakfast at the historic Lake Barrine Tea House, set on the edge of a volcanic crater lake surrounded by ancient rainforest. Sip freshly brewed coffee or tea as mist rises from the water, and keep an eye out for turtles and native birdlife in this peaceful World Heritage-listed haven.

 Stop 2: Winter & Mann Private Property – Local Handmade Delights

Step inside a charming Queenslander home where Anna & Stuart warmly welcome you to sample artisan liqueurs and handmade treats. Their shop in Yungaburra celebrates over 200 local producers, offering everything from tropical infusions to homewares — a true celebration of community and craftsmanship.

 Stop 3: Australian Platypus Park – Gourmet Tasting & Wildlife Spotting

Enjoy a gourmet tasting platter featuring kangaroo, crocodile, red claw (yabby) and fresh salads beside a spring-fed pond — home to wild platypus (keep your eyes peeled!). Pair your plate with local drinks including dragonfruit cider, platypus beer, and lemon myrtle tea.

 Stop 4: Gallo Dairyland – Cheeses, Chocolates & Scenic Views

Savour the taste of the Tablelands at this farm, with a selection of artisanal cheeses and Swiss-style chocolates made with fresh local milk. The views are as good as the treats — and the farm shop is a perfect spot for edible souvenirs.

 Stop 5: The Humpy Nut World – Tropical Fruits & Nut Tastings

Taste your way through a bounty of local tropical fruits, roasted peanuts and macadamias, freshly sourced from nearby farms. The Humpy is a quirky, family-run shop packed with produce and preserves — a nostalgic slice of Tablelands country life.

 Stop 6: Mt Uncle Distillery – Award-Winning Spirits & Local Botanicals

North Queensland’s first distillery and still one of its finest, Mt Uncle crafts premium spirits infused with native botanicals. Learn about their distilling process before sampling a selection of gins, vodkas, liqueurs and more in a beautiful rural setting.

 Stop 7: Emerald Creek Ice Creamery – Ice Cream & Sorbet Tasting Bowls

Finish your day with a tasting bowl of two sorbets and two creamy ice creams, made from local milk and tropical fruits like Davidson plum, dragonfruit, and lime. Relax on the veranda or wander the gardens as you enjoy this sweet finale.
