For a video of our experience to and from Kuranda, click here.

There are good days, then there are really good days.  A really good day for us in Australia was our Kuranda experience.  Located outside of Cairns, the town of Kuranda lies at the top of a mountain and smack in the middle of a rainforest.  Kuranda is accessible by car, but that’s not the way to travel.  A unique ride to Kuranda is in the Skyrail.  Starting at the base of a mountain, the Skyrail is an enclosed gondola that travels about 5 miles over the tree-tops, offering amazing views.  For even more fun, on our trip down the mountain, we took the Scenic Railway.  We traveled thru tunnels, twists, and turns, and saw a completely different landscape than we did from the Skyrail. It was a day not soon forgotten.
