ANCIENT RAINFOREST

Wander through the ancient rainforest in the Wet Tropics World Heritage Area and immerse yourself in nature in Wooroonooran National Park. A landscape dominated by towering mountains, pristine rivers and spectacular beauty.

JOSEPHINE FALLS

Swim in the crystal clear water at Babinda Boulders, which is culturally significant to the Yidinji Traditional Owners. Your guide will share their stories of a tragic love story that still ‘haunts’ the waters of the Babinda Boulders.
