In the language of the local Nywaigi Aboriginal people, the Paluma Range, known as Munan Gumburu or ‘misty mountains,’ is a place where dense rain forests and frequent atmospheric fog, particularly in the morning, create an ethereal setting. Located near Townsville in Australia, the park offers a variety of experiences for visitors. Hiking trails wind through the lush, mist-covered landscape, leading to stunning waterfalls. The cool, clear waters of the park’s natural pools provide refreshing swimming spots, making it a popular destination for those seeking both adventure and tranquility.
