Management Objectives
and Purposes of Binna Burra Mountain Lodge

Located adjacent to a World Heritage-listed wilderness area, Binna Burra Mountain Lodge was established along environmental conservation principles in the early 1930s and its commitment to best environmental practice now extends to all aspects of operations related to the Lodge and its surroundings.

Management and staff have worked as a close-knit team in developing the following management policies:

  • To achieve sound environmental practices across our entire operation
  • To comply fully with all environmental legislation
  • To minimise the amount of waste generated by re-using materials and recycling as much of the waste as possible
  • To minimise our use of energy, emissions, water and materials
  • To reduce our pollution to an absolute minimum and treat all effluents to the requirements of Government legislation
  • To ensure all new products or materials used around the lodge are natural (as opposed to synthetic or artificial) so that the impact of their use is minimal or non-existent
  • To ensure no domestic pets are allowed on the Binna Burra property or in the adjacent National Park
  • To discourage the feeding of native wildlife for their benefit and well-being
  • To promote and encourage the growth of native plants which directly complement the surrounding environment and undertake constant work to eradicate introduced species through the Lodge and campsite
  • To use cleaning products based on natural ingredients which have no adverse effects on the user or environment
  • To invite and encourage guests, suppliers and customers to participate in our efforts to protect the environment
  • To work with others in the tourist industry, in public associations, Government departments and the community in general in order to achieve wider environmental awareness and goals
  • To provide all employees with the training and resources required to meet our objectives
  • To openly communicate our policies and practices to guests, interested parties, school groups and university students
  • To continue to monitor and record any environmental impacts in relation to our operations and the observations of the flora and fauna in and around Binna Burra
  • To continue to monitor and record any environmental impacts in relation to our operations and the observations of the fauna and flora in and around Lamington National Park

Vision

Preservation of the spirit of Binna Burra through continuous business renewal.

Mission

We are custodians of Binna Burra's heritage, we nurture and improve it today, and we will pass it on in good health to future generations.
To achieve this we must have a sustainable business which has sufficient economic strength to ensure its environmental and social performance recognizes and complements the world heritage natural environment in which the business is located.

The Future

The distinctive history of the Lodge can only be mirrored by an even more exceptional future.
Brisbane-based architects 'Deicke Richards' have been the backbone of the impressive 'Master Plan', projecting 15 years into the development of the business.
