Kuranda is a pretty town set amongst the glorious mountains of the Atherton Tablelands, and famous for its wonderful markets. There is spectacular rainforest surrounding the town, with various walking tracks.

If you would like to experience one of the Kuranda Markets then head to Kuranda on Wednesday, Thursday, Friday or Sunday. There are various walks through the markets which are worth following. Another good walk is through the Jumrum Creek Environmental Park, which you can join at Thongon Street off of Barron Falls Road. Along Barron Falls Road you can also visit the Barron Falls, as well as a great lookout over the Barron Gorge National Park.
