Wild Guide to the Scenic Rim

This pocket-sized guide takes the reader on a journey of discovery from lush forests and high peaks between Mt Tamborine, the Lamington Plateau and Main Range to the rolling landscape and waterways at the foot of the mountains.
Although difficult to contain the wealth of information about the Scenic Rim region in such a small book, it is sure to provide visitors and residents alike with a taste of what makes this region of Queensland such an extraordinary place.
The Scenic Rim is a storehouse of unique plants and animals, distinctive vegetation types and a landscape of outstanding beauty.  Queensland’s first national park was declared in the Scenic Rim region and the area is home to one of Australia’s two species of lyrebird as well as many other rare and restricted plants and animals. Some remnants of Australia’s ancient, wet and temperate past can only be found in the Scenic Rim.
A feature of the guide is the stunning photography of the region captured by Queensland Museum photographers Gary Cranitch and Jeff Wright.

Heritage Guide to the Scenic Rim

The rich cultural landscape of the region unfolds in the Heritage Guide to the Scenic Rim, which weaves a path through the stories of the original inhabitants, the first European explorers and settlers to the changing face of the region’s industries and towns. The book also includes incidents such as the Stinson plane crash in 1937 and the amazing rescue of the two survivors.
“Many prominent identities are associated with the region including film-makers, war heroes, artists and naturalists. They include the first person to coin the phrase ‘Scenic Rim’, Arthur Groom,  “A noted photographer, writer and naturalist, Arthur Groom was also one of the Scenic Rim’s early tourism pioneers. He helped form Queensland Holiday Resorts in 1933 and subsequently managed Binna Burra Mountain Lodge.”
A feature of the guide is the stunning photography of the region captured by Queensland Museum photographers Gary Cranitch and Jeff Wright.
