For those that like to walk around and take in the view! Beautiful old architecture dating back to 1940's. Stunning trees grown symmetrically, create a tunnel like feature and the beautiful rainforest all around encases you in it's canopy. Watch the fish and eels in a feeding frenzy at the pond by the waterfall. Make sure you keep some of your food for the turtles at a spot further along the river.

This treetop canopy is another of the beauties Cairns/Innisfail offers up! Enjoy the shaded stroll along the Skywalk, amongst the trees, while being equal to their majestic height! Stopping at the lookout overseeing the valley below. For those fit enough for the challenge, climb the many stairs of the Skywalk tower to witness the greatest vista for miles!

Entertainment & Activities

The crystal clear waters of Babinda Boulders are so inviting, even those that don't swim will be tempted to dip. Not only a beautiful swimming hole, but a generous picnic spot with wooden tables and bench seats. If you remembered the picnic blanket then the grassed areas may be what you are looking for. Public amenities are also available. For those that can't be bothered with a picnic, the Babinda Bakery is the best thing since sliced bread. (They also sell it!) Worth stopping there, even if you had that picnic!
