Kuranda

The most popular ways to reach Kuranda are the Kuranda Scenic Railway, a historic train journey through the rainforest, and the Skyrail Rainforest Cableway, which offers breathtaking views from above. Both offer unique perspectives of the area. You can also drive, but parking can be limited.

Kuranda offers a wide range of activities, including visits to the Kuranda Koala Gardens and Birdworld, exploring the Kuranda Village markets, taking guided rainforest walks, visiting the Barron Falls, and experiencing Aboriginal cultural performances. Adventure activities like white-water rafting are also available nearby.

A full day is recommended to experience Kuranda properly. This allows you to enjoy the journey on the Skyrail or Railway, explore the village, visit attractions, and take in the natural beauty of the rainforest. However, you can tailor your visit based on your interests and time constraints.
