Most packages here run the classic loop: the historic railway up to Kuranda, then the Skyrail cable car back over the rainforest canopy. Workers cut the rail line through the range by hand in the 1880s, and trains still climb that original route. Both legs stop above Barron Falls, which turns from trickle to thunder in the wet season.
Discover Cairns highlights with this self-guided tour featuring scenic train rides, Skyrail cableway, and free time in Kuranda, perfect for nature lovers.
