Kuranda Village is a picturesque mountain retreat just 25km northwest of Cairns in Far North Queensland, Australia.  It is surrounded by World Heritage Rainforest rich in wildlife, with numerous walks and lookouts. Although tourism has been in Kuranda since the 1920's, it first attracted interest as a centre for those choosing an alternative lifestyle in the late 60’s, It's come along way from those days and though it is still laid back, it has a style and sophistication that sets it apart from other Cairns Highlands Venues and Attractions. 

Visitors can travel to Kuranda on the Historic Scenic Railway from Cairns, or by car or bus via the spectacular 11.5 km long Kuranda Range Road, or over the rainforest on the Skyrail Rainforest Cableway. The most exciting and rewarding way to get there is to take the leisurely one and a half hour railway trip up to the village, and the Skyrail cableway with its great views of the rainforest canopy back down.
