The Bloomfield Track | Does It Live Up To The Hype? | Waterfalls, Crocs and Beers | Episode 67 I

We're hitting the Bloomfield Track!
We've been curious about driving the Bloomfield for a long time, and we thought with all the wet weather, we'd do a day trip from Cape Tribulation to the famous Lions Den Hotel.
Join us as we find out if this track lives up to all the hype.

Such a lovely drive and that ginger beer certainly had a wonderful result lol!

[@TheLifestylePioneers]

Yes it was! Thanks, Pam 😂

[@markrowsell1091]

Can only imagine the fun you had with the drive back from the pub Simon! Another addition to our bucket list places.

[@TheLifestylePioneers]

😂 Thanks, Mark. It seemed a lot longer on the way back 😜😂

[@leealdous4609]

This was the best vid ever.
I think we need to do Bloomfield Track again.
Nothing better than a happy girl 😄

[@TheLifestylePioneers]

Thanks, Lee. That's awesome to hear 😍

[@thememeup1370]

Always a great watch guys and so many laughs with this one! Simon’s “it’s a dangerous time to be a schooner right now” then Liz so bloody ‘happy’ with herself after a couple of drinkies!
We will definitely do the Bloomfield Track one day and then head to the Lion’s Den!
Thanks for making our Sunday morning so entertaining!

[@TheLifestylePioneers]

Thanks so much. It's our pleasure. It's so nice to get feedback like this 😍

[@fleurneumann8430]

Wow , how the track has changed over the years . We first did the track in 1985 , 2 years after the track was cut through the rainforest much to horror of Greenies . It had rainforest debris lying alongside the track which was very much a dirt track with some steep drop offs and no passing opportunities . But look at it now , all commercialised . We also drove the track in 2007 and 2017 . So different to 1985 .

[@TheLifestylePioneers]

Thanks for sharing! I guess one day we'll have similar stories!

[@guydraper]

On ya Liz……Classic !

[@TheLifestylePioneers]

Cheers, Guy 🍻

[@alvincharlesworth5475]

Well done Liz, an original two-pot screamer, on Alcoholic Ginger Beer. Great entertainment you Guy's, always enjoy your content especially the out-takes.

[@TheLifestylePioneers]

Thanks, Alvin. Keeps the budget in check 😆

[@saritareimers5675]

The Bloomfield track is awesome. ! The Lions Den is somewhere we want to go back to. Liz you are great value….if you are ever near Toowoomba we have 5 acres you could camp on. Would love a drink and chat with you guys.

[@TheLifestylePioneers]

Thanks, Sarita! Much appreciated 👌

[@robyndehavilland1609]

Wow that croc!!! And just lying there with its mouth open 🐊🐊

[@TheLifestylePioneers]

It was pretty impressive!

[@michaelzarb6480]

MY WIFE AND I DID THE BLOOMFIELD TRACK AND HAD A COUPLE OF DRINKIES AT LIONS DEN 2 YEARS AGO WHEN I RETIRED THANK YOU SO MUCH
YOU GUYS BROUGHT IT ALL BACK GREAT EPISODE

[@TheLifestylePioneers]

That's awesome, Michael. Our pleasure!

[@davekerr8133]

That was hilarious party girl. HIC! Beautiful forest. When we lived in Weipa in 1978 a guy was taken by a croc. That put us all on edge for a bit. Keep doing guys. Love following. 😃

[@TheLifestylePioneers]

Thanks Dave. We weren't getting too close to this one!

[@awesometoursnz]

What a great day out, amazing waterfall and that Crocodile, awesome to see that. Great to see you so happy Liz. Have a great week and enjoy the bday party. Cheers 🍻

[@TheLifestylePioneers]

Thanks so much, Mark. It was a fun day all around.

[@jasonbarnes5605]

All good fun at the pub after a challenging 4x4 expedition! Well deserved 😊 love your vids guys!!

[@TheLifestylePioneers]

Thanks, Jason. It was a fun day out.

[@brokenlimitsnjm]

Funny as. They are a nice drink.

[@TheLifestylePioneers]

They're a favourite!

[@tainbartholomew]

I laughed that hard my morning coffee came out my nose!
Definitely wasn't expecting that response from the young fella 😂😂

[@TheLifestylePioneers]

😂😂 That's awesome. He's quite the character 😍

[@cherylrayes8015]

Ah brings back memories of doing the Bloomfield track. We helped some other travellers by towing them up one of the steeper sections because it was soooo wet and slippery. Enjoying spending Sunday mornings with you lot, certainly a bright spot today as sadly we're waiting to see how bad the floods are going to be in our neighbouring town which has been evacuated. Luckily we arent going to be affected at this stage. Hope the 90th was fun. Cheers Cheryl 🙂

[@TheLifestylePioneers]

Hope all is well Cheryl. Thanks for your support

[@bmrt1000]

Onya Liz!!!!!

[@TheLifestylePioneers]

😂🍻

[@melhart5808]

Happy is good 👍🏻😂

[@TheLifestylePioneers]

For sure!

[@coversadventurecapers2838]

The Bloomfield track is beautiful and the Lions Den is an epic spot. If you get the chance when you do the Creb one day stay the night especially when there is live music. Liz you are hilarious 🍻

[@TheLifestylePioneers]

We'd love to go back and do that! The finishing the CREB at the Lion's Den would be an awesome trip.

[@marygarnham4816]

Just love your video's. I'm starting to enjoy your trips more than TIAV. You just need to be more explicit on where you are. You are great and watching your videos is inspiring.

[@TheLifestylePioneers]

Thanks Mary. Appreciate the feedback 👌

[@live_work_play]

What a crack up. Go Liz...

[@TheLifestylePioneers]

Haha, thanks Tracy.😂

[@takingwandaoutyonda]

Haha, great episode!
Please drink vodka next time Liz, you know, just for the hell of it🤣🤣 We won’t laugh, promise 😉😁

[@TheLifestylePioneers]

😆😜 Sure you won't 😂🍻

[@AshHughesPhotos]

Get Liz on the ginger beers more often!

[@TheLifestylePioneers]

😂🍻

[@_mywayaround]

Cadbury Girl 🍻😂🤣

[@TheLifestylePioneers]

For sure 😂

[@anthonymcneil8778]

I was staying at Cape Trib for 5 weeks while you were there and it rained continually, got a little depressing. And there was a big croc on the river back just down from the Safari Camping, it was mighty impressive and pretty close

[@TheLifestylePioneers]

There you go! We missed that croc but can imagine how 5 weeks of that would get too much 😜

[@grahamwhittaker8844]

I could live up there no probs. 👏👏👏👍🍺❤️🇦🇺. I just ran the tape measure over the croc,it’s got to be an easy five plus meters 💩💩💩

[@TheLifestylePioneers]

😂😂 Cheers Graham 👌

[@rosevermeersch5140]

You guys are AWESOME...Liz I'd have a drink or MORE with you EVERYTIME🍾🍷🍸🍹🍺🍻🥂🥃😜😜😜

[@TheLifestylePioneers]

Thanks so much, Rose! 😍

[@stewierun9940]

That’s 2 ginger beers 🍻🙈🫣. 🤣😂
Stay dry

[@TheLifestylePioneers]

Yep 😆

[@ryanpedersen5722]

Do you think you need to put it in 4wd?

[@TheLifestylePioneers]

Probably not if it's dry. You need some clearance, though.
