Platypus Spotting in the Rainforest

Just a short, easy stroll from the car park at Broken River, you'll find yourself at one of the world's best spots for seeing platypus in the wild. The accessible boardwalk leads you to viewing platforms overlooking the calm river, where with a little patience, you're very likely to spot these shy creatures, especially around dawn or dusk. It's a truly special experience watching them play and feed in their natural rainforest habitat, a must-do when you're in Eungella National Park.
