kuranda

Located around 14km north of Cairns is the irresistible and charming village in the rainforest; Kuranda. Immersed deep in this tropical rainforest is this magical place, with its quaint old timber church, magnificent arts and crafts, mind blowing markets and heaps of nature based attractions. Get your camera ready for the breathtaking beauty of the Barron Falls, glimpse the gateway to Kuranda on the Scenic Railway and be in awe of the tropical rainforest as it expands below you from the Skyrail Cableway.

Whether you are looking for revitalisation or relaxation Kuranda has plenty to offer. Why not visit the cute Koalas at Kuranda Koala Gardens, be astounded by the largest butterfly in Australia; Cairns Birdwing at the Australian Butterfly Sanctuary or soak up the arts especially when the Spring Arts Festival hits the village in September every year, which truly makes Kuranda and the majestic rainforest come alive. Whatever you age you will find this cherished spot something to write home about.
