PANDANUS PARK  
 
The quest for inner peace within the veteran community is on-going. Veterans of all conflicts need a place to go to chill out, to meet old and new mates, to be with others who have done the time, walked the walk and talked the talk. This site is a meeting place for such Veterans

Veterans from all walks of life, all ages, all stages of health, have made the pilgrimage to Pandanus Park, their wilderness retreat in in Cape York in far north Queensland. En route, many have spent a quiet night or two at Cockscomb Veterans’ Camp and some have gone fossicking in the gemfields. Interstate travellers have trekked across the Nullaboor, built snowmen at Bush Retreat in Tassie, and made their way thru the mallee scrub, opal ridges and more.

Wherever you come from, this web site will guide you in a new direction and you can follow in
the well worn steps of

The Path To Peace
