Superb Riverfront Address

REGION INFORMATION

The Atherton

Tablelands (also known as the Cairns Highlands) is 90kms south-west of

Cairns ranges from 500m to 1280m above sea level and covers 620km². Cairns Highlands total population is approximately 12,000 people.

The Tablelands are renowned for the mild tropical climate and is spared the climatic extremes of floods, droughts and destructive cyclonic winds. Enjoy cool summer nights and mild, sunny winter days and does not suffer from the high humidity experienced in the coastal areas.

The temperature, wildlife, volcanic lakes, Tinaroo Dam, rainforests, waterfalls, peace & quiet, food trails, plus the savannah area, thermal springs are all just some unique experiences that are a pleasant change to the coastal regions.

The World Heritage listed crater lakes - Barrine and Eacham - are the blue icons of the green Tablelands. Scenic drives, rainforest walks, giant trees, boat cruises and plenty of wildlife. Both Lake Eacham and Lake Barrine have circuit walks around the lakes edge. The walks provide an opportunity to experience remnant Tablelands rainforest and see some wildlife such as the musky rat-kangaroo and more than 100 bird species.

Lake Eacham is ideal for a picnic or

barbecue and a swim in the deep clear water. Lake Barrine is the place to go for a Devonshire tea or a light meal at the historic teahouse. The teahouse also offers regular guided boat tours of the lake. A great opportunity to see turtles, eels and water birds.

Also there is the picturesque Malanda Falls tumbling over a basalt lava flow, filling the historic Malanda swimming pool. Here at this recreation area you can enjoy a swim, a picnic and a walk in the rainforest. The Falls also has an environmental information centre that features the volcanic history of the area and a cafe.
