Overview
All aboard the Kuranda Scenic Railway for the ultimate rainforest experience. Immerse yourself in the lush forestry, wildlife, and ancient local Aboriginal culture. See how many creatures and critters you can spot on the stunning journey up the mountain — and whatever evaded your eyes, you're sure to find later on the Army Duck tour or at the Koala and Wildlife Park! Arrive at the wholesome little township of Kuranda Village, perched high atop the Barron Gorge National Park. Explore the local shops and eateries, and be sure to stop off at the Heritage Markets to pick up some obligatory holiday mementos.
Go wild on a historic WWII Army Duck as you traverse croc-infested waters and careen through the dense, ancient rainforests on a hunt for iconic Aussie wildlife in their natural habitat, then get cuddly with a koala and hand-feed a roo at the Koala and Wildlife Park.
Let the cultures and practices of the local Traditional Landowners wash over you as the Pamagirri Aboriginal Experience share their Dreamtime Stories and traditional dances with you — you'll even learn how to throw a boomerang like a pro! And cool off at the Tropical Fruit Orchard with fresh, locally grown produce, juices and ice cream! We can't think of a better way to end a fabulous day in Tropical Far North Queensland's endlessly beautiful rainforests.
