Enjoy a unique perspective of Australia's World Heritage-listed tropical rainforest, glide above the canopy before descending to explore the forest floor. Learn about ancient plants and animals that existed before dinosaurs roamed the earth, whose descendants can still be seen in the rainforest today.
Complimentary Ranger guided boardwalk tours, the immersive Rainforest Discovery Zone, engaging interpretive signage and scenic lookouts at Red Peak help you unlock the secrets of this mystical landscape. Discover the Rainforest Interpretation Centre at Barron Falls and marvel at the Barron Gorge and Falls from The Edge Lookout.
Ensure you get the most out of your experience by downloading Skyrail's Audio Guide App for in-gondola commentary and more.
