Description
Discover the Atherton Tablelands on a full-day adventure packed with guided sightseeing and tastings, departing from Cairns and the Northern Beaches. Begin with a canopy walk in the Kuranda rainforest, where you'll soak in epic views of Barron Falls Gorge and learn about local culture and history.
Refuel with fresh scones and locally grown coffee at Skybury Plantation, overlooking the sweeping savannah. At Granite Gorge, meet and hand-feed rare Unadorned Rock Wallabies amongst impressive boulders. Journey on to enjoy award-winning spirits and friendly animals at Mt Uncle Distillery, nestled among orchards.
Savour a hearty lunch at Gallo Dairyland, including artisan cheeses and chocolates, before marvelling at the ancient Curtain Fig Tree and the extinct Bromfield Crater. Head through Malanda to explore heritage buildings and scenic falls, adding even more local flavour to your day.
Finish with a refreshing swim at Millaa Millaa Falls, and then explore Crater Lakes National Park, home to Lake Barrine's majestic Twin Kauri Trees. Descend the Gillies Range, passing striking local landmarks, before returning to Cairns in the late afternoon.
