Happy New Year!!!

A Happy New Year to all from the team at the Mission Beach Information Station. Its a wet one here in Mission Beach and whole North Qeensland region. Townsville has just recorded its wetest December on record!!

Lacey Creek Walking Track

A favourite amongst the locals in Mission Beach! The track is about 7 km out of town, is 1.2km long, and extremely beautiful. Informative signage, fish viewing platform and a chance of seeing the elusive cassowary make this a terrific walk. Toilet and picnic facilities available. The Rainforest did suffer significant damage from Cyclone Larry (2006) which provides visitors with a unique opportunity to see the rainforest's regeneration process.
