Kuranda, Atherton Tablelands

The Tropical Horizon sent us to take the scenic train in the morning. The train arrived at Kuranda and we spent some time at the local market. Then a guide drove a minibus taking us to the coffee farm. We saw the famous dwarf coffee tree and the processing of coffee bean. Then the Granite Gorge amazed us with its landscape created by the ancient volcanos. We took the skyrail flying over the tree top and back to the Cairns.


This iron bridge is one famous spot along the railway.

The Stoney Creek Falls.

The Barron Falls.
