Cobbold Gorge Tours

Outback Queensland is home to a breathtaking natural wonder. A hidden oasis tucked away within the rugged sandstone formations of North Queensland.

Welcome to Cobbold Gorge, in the heart of the Gulf Savannah region. A pioneering place. An ancient landscape which invites you to breathe in the bush and breathe out your worries.

Immerse yourself in the experience of a truly unique Outback Queensland holiday destination when you visit Cobbold Gorge – offering guided tours and accommodation, for people of all ages and abilities (see our Accessibility page for more information).

Cruise the gorge then walk atop its walls and across Australia’s first fully glass bridge, exploring the incredible geological landforms and our amazing savannah wonderland on your guided tour. Discover the wildlife, go bushwalking, bird watching, kayaking and even mountain biking. Or top off your Cobbold adventure with a fantastic helicopter flight.

Embracing the spirit of the outback no longer means giving up creature comforts at Cobbold Village, with modern ensuited rooms and cabins, plus ensuited, drive-through and powered van sites, camping and self-contained sites, laundry facilities, camp kitchens, BBQ’s, licensed Bistro & Bar and infinity pool with swim up pool bar.

Sustainability Commitment

The main criterion in the establishment of Cobbold Gorge Tours, and to this day – is that the operation is conducted with minimal environmental impact, so in 2009 the Terry family established the 4,720-hectare Cobbold Gorge Nature Refuge. A Nature Refuge is a voluntary agreement between a landholder and the Queensland Government that acknowledges a commitment to manage and preserve land with significant conservation and or cultural values, while allowing compatible and sustainable land uses to continue. Nature Refuges are perpetual, registrable on title and bind successive owners or lessees of the land. Nature Refuges not only reflect the significant values on the land, but also the effective management to maintain them over time.
