Tamborine Mountain
Tamborine Mountain is inland from the Gold Coast, about 21 miles
(34km) northwest of Nerang and about 40 miles (62km) from Brisbane.
It is a popular scenic drive destination, as the area includes
seven national parks featuring a variety of sub-tropical
rainforest. Mount Tamborine itself rises 1,837ft (560m) above sea
level. The main Tamborine National Park covers a large section of
the mountain offering walking trails through abundant rainforest
and past waterfalls, with excellent picnic facilities. There are
numerous art and craft galleries in the area, several restaurants
and two wineries.

Money
The Australian Dollar (AUD) is divided into 100 cents. Banks and
bureaux de change exchange most foreign currencies. Travellers
cheques are also welcome everywhere, but banks take a small
commission and it is better to take cheques in major currencies
(e.g. US dollars or Euros) to avoid additional charges. Credit
cards are widely accepted and ATMs are freely available throughout
the country. Banking hours are generally 9.30am to 4pm Monday to
Thursday, and 9.30am to 5pm on Friday, but some banks offer
extended hours and some are open on Saturday mornings.
