Description

Experience two of the most popular tourist attractions in the Far North. Enjoy the convenience of being picked up from your Cairns accommodation and transferred to Skyrail. The cableway will take you above the forest canopy to enjoy our World Heritage listed Rainforest. Then spend some time exploring Kuranda ‘the village in the rainforest’ before departing on the world famous Kuranda Scenic Railway. This amazing journey will stop at Barron Gorge and cross the impressive Stoney Creek Bridge on its way to Freshwater Station and then on to Cairns Station.

Skyrail
Skyrail is a unique rainforest experience taking you on an unforgettable journey over and through Australia’s World Heritage listed Tropical Rainforest.

Glide just metres above the canopy in Skyrail’s comfortable six-person gondola cabins, enjoying spectacular views of the rainforest, tropical Cairns, the Coral Sea and the lush Cairns Highlands.

Two rainforest mid-stations, Red Peak and Barron Falls, provide the opportunity to explore and learn about this ancient environment on Ranger guided boardwalk tours and at the Rainforest Interpretation Centre.

Upon reaching the village of Kuranda a rich assortment of interesting attractions and unique shopping experiences awaits you.

Winner of the 2008 Qantas Australian Tourism Award for Excellence in Sustainable Tourism, Skyrail is The World’s Most Beautiful Rainforest Experience.

The original Kuranda Scenic Railway is a spectacular journey comprising unsurpassed views of dense rainforest, steep ravines and picturesque waterfalls. This famous railway winds its way on a journey of approximately 1 hour 45 minutes from Kuranda, the village in the rainforest, to Cairns.
