Kuranda
is a small community 400m above sea level and about 25 kms from Cairns and
75 kms from Port Douglas. The town is surrounded by tropical rainforest, and
easily accessible to the Great Barrier Reef. It has an established vibrant
arts/crafts community, and is the destination village for Kuranda Skyrail
and Kuranda Traveltrain. Kuranda is also a popular summer escape from the
heat of the coastal strip.
The
Kuranda Scenic Railway is undoubtedly one of the world's great day trip
adventures, and is an essential experience for any visitor to Cairns. You'll
travel the 90 minute journey from Cairns in classic timber carriages. The
trip includes a climb of more than 300 metres in lush tropical rainforest
up the valley of the Barron River, encompassing deep river gorges, rugged
mountain ranges and spectacular waterfalls. A highlight of the journey is
the Stoney Creek Falls - the train traverses a bridge just in front of the
falls offering a wide-screen experience on your left. Near the Kuranda end
of the journey, you'll also pass by the Barron Falls on your right.
