Come on walk with a difference. We will be catching the train from Roma Street to Wellington Point where we will disembark to enjoy a walk to the beginning of King Island. This will be a circuit walk.

Walk on water' across the spectacular low-tide sand bridge from Wellington Point (Cullen Cullen) to the tiny uninhabited King Island (Erobin).

A Redlands Coast signature experience, King Island is full of natural wonder, history and one of the most unique walks in south-east Queensland.

King Island was named by surveyor Robert Dixon, who also named Wellington Point. In 1887, it was declared a Reserve and in 1992, it became protected under the Nature Conservation Act. Today it is part of the Moreton Bay Marine Park and is managed by a volunteer group and the Redlands City Council. 

After experiencing King Island, we will have a relaxing morning tea in the Recreation Reserve. There is a cafe close by where those who wish can purchase food or a drink. We will then walk around the esplanade and head towards part of the Geoff Skinner Wetlands. 

After the Wetlands we will head back to the train station.

For those you prefer to meet us directly at Wellington Point, there will be an opportunity to do so, just contact me for details.
