Swimming at the Upper Portals and Lower Portals is fun during the summer months.

The Upper & Lower Portals are rock pools on Mount Barney Creek, at the base of Mount Barney, in South East Queensland (SEQ).

Mount Barney Creek runs fresh, cool and clear making it one of the best places in South East Queensland for a swim in a country stream.

Tuckeroo Cottages provides ideal cabin/cottage accommodation within easy reach of the Upper & Lower Portals.
