Tinchi Tamba Wetlands Reserve

Tinchi Tamba Wetlands Reserve

October 2022 · 2 min read · Queensland

The Tinchi Tamba Wetlands is located about a 30 kilometres north of Brisbane in Bald Hills on the bank of Pine River. Queensland, Australia.

Tinchi Tamba are Aboriginal naming words meaning mangroves and Ibis.

I must have driven past this place a one thousand times. As it is located just off one of main roads north of Brisbane which hugs around and cross over the Pine River nearby. You get a nice view of the area when crossing the bridge especially heading south.

There are a couple of entry points in to the Tinich Tamba Wetlands Reserve one of them is at the Deep Water Bend reserve which is a popular picnic and fishing area.

A blue Tongue Lizard. We did not see a lot of bird or animal life as we walked around mid day but I think there would be a lot more if you got here early in the morning.
