The Pioneer Valley apart from being one of the richest sugar producing areas in Australia is beautifully picturesque part of Australia. The Eungella National Park is the longest, oldest stretch of subtropical rainforest in Australia.

Finch Hatton Gorge is where you can take a walk through the lush rainforest and find yourself at various fresh water swimming holes at the base of the spectacular Araluen and Wheel of Fire waterfalls. Or for those with the taste for adventure- Forest Flying is a trip on a flying fox through the rainforest canopy. Warning the walk from the picnic area at the bottom of the gorge walk to the top is not for the faint heated, it goes up constantly with some steep pinches.

Within Eungella National Park is Finch Hatton, famous for its gorge, with waterfalls that flow all year round, fresh-water swimming holes, wonderful walking tracks.
