Have you conquered the Thorsborne Trail on Hinchinbrook Island yet? 🏕️🥾🏝️
If you're looking for a great outdoor adventure this year make sure you put Hinchinbrook Island's Thorsborne Trail on your to do list 🤩Make sure you book early.
We are so luck to have Australia'a largest island National Park right on our doorstep here in Hinchinbrook.
If you're not into hiking, boat users can take advantage of the beautiful bays and pristine swimming holes on offer.

Unfortunately the trail is about to change forever. Commercial hiking on the Thorsborne trail. The forty person hiker limit has protected the island and hiker wilderness experience for over 35 years.
Booked to hike it in July! It was like trying to get Swiftie tickets for the school holidays 😆
🛥️ Emergency Dredging Project - Port Hinchinbrook.
I recently attended Port Hinchinbrook to check out the Cassowary Coast Regional Council led emergency dredging project.
While I was there I met with Glen Black of AMA Marine Coastal Services, the contractor performing the dredging works.
Glen informed me that the project was progressing as planned and that works should be completed in approximately four weeks time.
The money being used to conduct this project is part of the $1.5M allocated by the federal government, securing this money was a hard fought battle by the Cardwell community.
Although this dredging project won’t restore all tidal access it was the option the CCRC decided to go with as dredging under 1000 cubic meters required less stringent environmental approvals from the State.
I look forward to continuing our work with all levels of government to restore all tidal access at Port Hinchinbrook.

Unrelated but……. Who provides funding for the CCC ? I’m thinking they either need more funding, or better investigators as the Troy Thompsons farce continues. If this is how promptly they work on something that’s had weeks/months of both local and national media coverage then god only knows how efficiently they handle other matters and complaints………. Or could it be this is the ineffective corruption commission that our politicians want ?
