Overview
Mount Lewis is located at the Northern end of the Atherton Tablelands; a rainforest-covered mountain that is an attraction to visiting birders as it contains all of the Wet Tropics endemic bird species. It is also one of the more reliable locations to search for the scarce and elusive Blue-faced Parrot-Finch. A number of other rainforest species can also be found here.
