TROPICAL NORTH QUEENSLAND
Where the Rainforest meets the ReefTropical North Queensland mixes the excitement of new discoveries with the enchantment of exotic experiences.
The only place where two World Heritage Wonders are side by side: The Great Barrier Reef and the Daintree National Park with some of the world’s oldest tropical rainforest.
The warmth of the tropics is reflected in engaging activities such as snorkeling and diving on the Great Barrier Reef, white water rafting, beach combing, kayaking, rainforest walks, jungle surfing, bungy jumping, sky diving and so much more.
Colourful and quirky Kuranda, the village in the rainforest can be reached by the historic Kuranda Scenic Rail or travel on Skyrail’s Rainforest Cableway, soaring above the rainforest with magnificent views.
From Cardwell to Cooktown the sheer majesty of nature is evident in Tropical North Queensland’s pristine rainforest. Explore volcanic crater lakes and spectacular waterfalls on the Atherton Tablelands and sample some of the best produce the region has on offer.
Discover the outback and Gulf Savannah and uncover the quintessential spirit of Outback Australia only a few hours drive from the coast. Hidden gorges, rodeos and country races, mining relics. Lava tubes and wetlands abounding with bird life are all part of the region’s enormous diversity. You can rough it on a 4WD and follow in the foot steps of our explorers or join a coach tour and hop aboard a rail adventure.
The Epic Cape York drive explores the unforgettable wilderness area of the Cape York Peninsula including the historic township of Cooktown and the picturesque Torres Strait Islands.
So, escape your winter and bask in Tropical North Queensland’s sunshine whilst experiencing natural encounters at its best, where you can step out of your comfort zone and indulge, exhilarate and relax.
Tropical North Queensland is a spectacular and diverse area for any touring option and drive. Drive North Queensland encompasses The Overlander’s Way, The Savannah Way, The Great Tropical Drive and the Epic Cape York drive, so there is something for everyone to experience and enjoy.
For further information on Cairns and Tropical North Queensland visit www.tropicalnorthqueensland.org.au
