Hiking the Scenic Rim Trail | Brisbane, Australia | 2019
The Scenic Rim is one of Australia’s most accessible World Heritage Listed regions located just outside of Brisbane city in Queensland. The area spans 4254sq km (2643sq miles) and offers stunning scenery and plenty of hiking opportunities to visitors of all ages.
Hiking along the Scenic Rim Trail can be done in many different ways. Many locals opt to explore the region on day hikes, conquering one part of the trail after another, while avid hikers can set out on multi-day hikes, carrying all of their equipment and provisions with them.
The idea of roughing it on the trail no longer sounds appealing to us, so we were pleased to discover a challenging yet comfortable way to experience the Scenic Rim Trail with Spicers Retreats (

Australiens Nationalparks 2/5 - Die Alpen
#Australiens Nationalparks: Die #Alpen - Die #Nationalparks und #Naturschutzgebiete #Australische Alpen, die sich über drei #Bundesstaaten erstrecken, schützt ein durch Erosion rundgeschliffenes Gebirge im Südosten des Kontinents. Durch dessen tiefe Täler fließt der wilde Snowy River, der den Hängen des Mount #Kosciuszko entspringt. Dort schneit es im #Winter regelmäßig. Dort lebt der Bergbilchbeutler, Australiens einziges Beuteltier, das Winterschlaf hält und Vorräte anlegt. Nach der Schneeschmelze benötigt das hamstergroße Tier reichhaltige Nahrung, die in erster Linie aus Bogong-Faltern besteht. Doch die #Klimaveränderung gefährdet die Existenz der Bergbilchbeutler. Steht das nahrhafte Futter nicht zum rechten Zeitpunkt zur Verfügung und schmilzt der Schnee bereits vor der Ankunft der #Bogong-Falter, müssen die Bergbilchbeutler verhungern. Am Snowy River leben auch viele #Wildpferde, sogenannte Brumbys. Einst waren sie die #Reitpferde der australischen #Cowboys. Inzwischen sind sie zu einer Plage für die Nationalparks geworden, weil sie mit ihren harten Hufen den Boden zerstören. Als sie von der Parkleitung vorübergehend zum Abschuss freigegeben wurden, war die öffentliche Empörung groß. Nun werden sie mit viel Aufwand eingefangen und verkauft, doch das reduziert den Bestand kaum. Die Brumby-Freunde beharren auf der kulturellen Bedeutung der Pferde und verweisen auf das australische Nationalepos des Dichters Banjo Paterson, der Pferd und Reiter verherrlicht. Glen Symonds und seine Frau Julie nehmen eingefangene Brumbys auf und bilden sie zu Reitpferden für Kinder aus. Das erfordert viel Geduld und Mühe. Im Frühjahr dann, wenn auf den Bergkuppen noch Schnee liegt, kann man dem lautstarken #Ritual des #Leierschwanzvogels lauschen, der sämtliche aufgeschnappte #Vogelstimmen nachzuahmen weiß, oder Graue #Riesenkängurus sichten, die auf den hochalpinen Almen Gras fressen.
