The Attractions are many and varied including Birdworld, The Butterfly Sanctuary and the Rainforest Noctarium. There are plenty of public facilities and also a park.
At the scheduled time you will board Skyrail, the world's most beautiful rainforest experience. Skyrail has four seat cablecars which travel up & down the mountain to Kuranda. The scenery is magnificent looking out over the Coral Sea and cane fields while skimming across the top of the Rainforest Canopy.
There are two stops enroute where your family can learn about the rainforest in the National Park's interactive information area and also take a walk along raised boardwalks through the rainforest. It is fun and educational.
