Wild Mob runs conservation adventure trips in Queensland where participants get to work on meaningful environmental projects. Spend a week living in the bush, assisting with an endangered Wallaby recovery plan. Then for a change of pace, in the second week, you’ll sail to a secluded island and help with ecosystem restoration and reef monitoring!

Be assured though, you’ll have plenty of time to explore these unique environments, too. You’ll get to snorkel on the Great Barrier Reef, hike through the endangered Brigalow Belt or just relax under a tree with a book while the sun sets.

All you need to do is get yourself to the start point in Mackay, and we’ll take care of the rest.
