Ziplining through an epic location Starting off with something that will get your blood pumping and heartbeat pulsating- taking a zipline tour of the sprawling Daintree Rainforest paradise! It is one of the many wet tropics that spans across the Cairns Region, is the world’s oldest tropical rainforest and is utterly gorgeous. The 95 km Daintree tract is full of lush canopies, creeping vines, unique plants and animals, uninhabited beaches, sparkling rivers and spectacular valleys. The views are unforgettable, and what better way to get a taste of the rainforest than by taking the most adventurous tour the place has to offer! The platforms are 7 to 16 meters off the ground, so you get to the bonus of having a bird’s eye view of Daintree while waiting for your chance.
Soak and rejuvenate in a volcanic crater Lake Eacham is an astounding 65m deep maar, or a volcanic crater, formed by massive explosions of magma rapidly superheating with the groundwater. It is a gorgeous deep blue lake fringed with the emerald canopies of the rainforest and a viewing deck. The atmosphere is just *chef’s kiss* with the cool water, sunny sky, serene nature sounds of soothing bird chirps and animal calls. The drive there is super picturesque and gives a mini road trip feel.

And, there is nothing more rejuvenating than basking in the cascade of a waterfall and taking a dip in the cool plunge pools on a hot day!
