Dig It on Tamborine Mountain

Australia’s first ever mini-excavator park at Tamborine Mountain, is just an hour from the Gold Coast and Brisbane. Dig IT has welcomed thousands of kids (and grownups) to sit in the driver’s seat to operate their own mini-excavator, just like a real construction worker, in an outdoor construction zone on a mountain famous for rocks.

Dig It at Thunderbird Park, Mount Tambourine.

Just an hour from Brisbane and the Gold Coast, the Scenic Rim stretches from Canungra to The Lost World, Beaudesert to Boonah, Tamborine Mountain to Kalbar. It is home to the ancient World Heritage-listed Gondwana Rainforests, six historic national parks, charming towns and villages, adventure parks, farm stays, craft breweries, boutique wineries, ecolodges, tantalising gourmet and locally led food experiences, world-class camping and glamping, and breathtaking spaces in between.
