Kuranda is a small town in the mountains not far from Cairns, in Queensland. I was there last year in July. It’s common to take the train up to Kuranda and then take a gondola ride down. You go through and over some really beautiful rain forest. The town itself is actually just a tourist trap these days sadly, although there are a few amusing things to see. Food in town was overpriced and very disappointing.
The gondola ride back down is probably the highlight of the journey. You can get off mid-journey at one of three (I think) stations and go for a walk in the rain forest.















Thanks for stopping by – May the Journey Never End!
That gondola is very high up!!
Beautiful! Love the Kuranda railway station! So charming! 🙂
It certainly is charming – I think that’s what they are going for!
Wow! I’ve never been to Kuranda but it seems like a charming place. I fell in love with this place thanks to your pictures, especially with the railway station. 🙂
🙂 Thanks Agness!
This is a part of Australia that I haven’t visited, and I really want to. Soon, hopefully!
🙂 cheers Tim!
