Jourama Falls, Paluma National Park and other cascades and rapids on Waterview Creek are fed by streams flowing down from higher slopes. No wonder Paluma National Park is World Heritage-listed. The buff-breasted paradise-kingfisher migrates from Papua New Guinea and can be seen along the rainforest-lined creek between October and April. The open forest beyond the creek is home to the endangered mahogany glider. Camp at Jourama Falls and look for nocturnal animals such as northern brown bandicoots and amethystine pythons. Stroll along the one and a half kilometre track to view the falls, creek and surrounding rainforest. Look for the distinctive red flowers of weeping bottlebrush trees overhanging the creek, which attract the brilliant blue Ulysses butterfly.
