Skyrail Rainforest Cableway is a unique rainforest experience taking you on an unforgettable journey over Australia's World Heritage protected Tropical Rainforests.
Spanning seven and a half kilometres, Skyrail has comfortable six person gondola cabins which glide just metres above the canopy, providing spectacular and uninterrupted views of the rainforest, tropical Cairns, the Coral Sea and the lush Cairns Highlands. Witness the wonders of the world's oldest continually surviving rainforests from Skyrail's unique vantage point, before alighting at Skyrail's two mid-stations to explore and learn more about this fascinating environment from the forest floor.
At Red Peak Station Skyrail's qualified Rangers provide regular guided boardwalk tours throughout the day, sharing their environmental expertise and answering any visitor questions. Meanwhile, easy access walkways at Barron Falls Station take you to three separate lookouts providing breathtaking views of Barron Gorge and Falls.
A one way Skyrail journey takes approximately 90 minutes while a return trip is two and a half hours.
