"Riverview" is a property that consists mainly of the valley floor being cleared for agricultural purposes. It is surrounded by the sheer majesty of Mount Joy which rises steeply on its western border and Mt Porcupine to the south. A natural mountain range completes the reality of being encased by hills. The mountains and ranges are still covered in their original eucalyptic mantle.
Take a stroll through the Australian Bush. Here there are no sounds except the sounds of nature. The sound of the wind in the trees, the call and song of the birds, sometimes the complete brooding stillness, all these can be experienced. Look around, see all the different shades of green Mother Nature paints her landscape with. Bright, bold, greyyish, muted, dark, and vibrant. See all the different types of trees and shrubbery all standing together, homes to a myriad of insect and bird life.
Bush walks can be an exciting experience as one is immersed into the ancient world of herbage and plant life. See the different flowers of the gums, experience the sheer beauty of the yellow brilliance of wattle, the profusion of the purplish Happy Wanderer as it drifts along the Bush.. Walks can be tailor made to accommodate the different levels of competency of Bush Walkers.
Some walks can be pleasant strolls through relatively easily traversed Bush whilst the more experienced bush walker may want to accept the challenge Mount Joy invites. Here, on the way to the summit of Mount Joy you can experience the different types of vegetation as the altitude gets higher.
Observe the stunning and ancient rock formations as they sit where they were thrown from the mouth of active volcanoes millions of years ago. See a wedge tailed eagle as it patrols its territory or sits aloof and majestic in its eyrie. Close your eyes and you may hear the sounds of an ancient and sacred didgeroo rising from the mists of time.
