Wongi Lagoon & Mt Doongul
donnaa profile photo
donnaa 1 reviews

Favorite thing: Visit the hinterland, Mt Doongul and escape from the beaten tourist trail. There is more to Hervey Bay than the sprawling town of Hervey Bay .
The quaint Forgetten towns of Torbanlea & Howard. Swim in the cool waters of Wongi Lagoon and feel rejuventated!
Camp over nite & inhale the fresh country air.

Amazing how close the milky way seems- the beauty of the clear night sky. Mount Doongul- amazing views to the sand blows of Fraser Island. Amazing Place!

Fondest memory: The undiscovered hinterland- Mt Doongul- nature lovers paradise- what an amazing country!

The quaint Forgetten towns of Torbanlea & Howard. Swim in the cool waters of Wongi Lagoon and feel rejuventated!

Camping over nite & inhale the fresh country air near Wongi Lagoon- but remeber to respect the local Bunyip & don't swim at night!

Feel the unique energy of Wongi and the glimpse why this site is of such importance to Local Aborginal Tribes on their walking routes.

I was shocked to discover how few of these sacred sites are left in the area. This one could be lost as well- due to dam inundation. Definately something worth fighting for- The Butchullar Tribe are trying to protect the site from development.

Amazing how close the milky way seems-I could reach out & touch the Milky Way!

The beauty of the clear country night sky and fresh crisp air, with the sounds of nature all around you.

Mount Doongul- amazing views to the sand blows of Fraser Island. Amazing Place!

I am going to let all my friends in the UK know of this amazing place! Irreplaceable!

Certainly a secret worth discovering

Lorikeet in a flowering tree..

Favorite thing: Many of the trees here are flowering types.. which come alive with Lorikeets and other birds, feeding on the sweet nectar.

Fondest memory: If you enlarge this photo, you will get a much better view of the colorful Lorikeet.

Park..

Favorite thing: Trees adorne the streets of Hervey Bay. This one in particular has what might almost be called a park, all along the length of the street. A beautiful street to live on, and I will most likely be enjoying this lovely view from my apartment windows.

Fondest memory: The beautiful tropical weather... the laidback lifestyle... and ofcoarse, the beautiful beaches.
