It’s the only place on the planet where two World Heritage-listed sites meet; the Great Barrier Reef and Wet Tropics rainforest. And it is the only spot on earth where you can swim with a Dwarf Minke Whale and walk with a Traditional Owner from not one, but two, of the longest living cultures.  \u003C/p\u003E\r\n\u003Cp\u003EThat’s just the beginning of the credit roll. For nature-chasing travellers, Cairns is Australia’s hub of all things green. Head west to the Tablelands and follow a trail of produce up a sun-drenched range until you reach waterfalls that cascade prettily onto boulders below. Then stop to taste exotic fruit plucked from the orchards and made into ice-cream, vodka and even wine.  \u003Cbr\u003E\r\n\u003C/p\u003E\r\n\u003Cp\u003EAlternatively, set the compass due north for the 140-million-year-old Daintree Rainforest covered by a Shrek-green canopy the size of Sydney. In one square hectare alone, there are between 120 and 150 different types of trees offering a patchwork of hiking trails and a whole new definition of calm. If you prefer not to sweat, a life unhurried awaits with a slow drift over knee-deep streams flush with fresh-water fish and overhanging ferns. \u003Cbr\u003E\r\n\u003C/p\u003E\r\n\u003Cp\u003EThe Great Barrier Reef – described by Sir David Attenborough as ‘the most magical thing you ever saw in your life’ – sits high on the Cairns’ bucket list. This Reef is unlike any other. It’s the only living thing you can see from outer space and it was the inspiration for a blockbuster story about a little fish lost.  \u003Cbr\u003E\r\n\u003C/p\u003E\r\n\u003Cp\u003ESo where do you start? You could spend months in the region and still not ‘do’ it all. So, with a week to spare, and a budget for fun, here is your nine-day holiday plan.\u003Cbr\u003E\r\n\u003C/p\u003E\r\n","readMoreHeight":0,"richText":true,":type":"teq/components/editorial/editorial-description"},"spacer_2068584881_co":{"spacerType":"whitespace","paddingSize":"xxsmall",":type":"teq/components/spacer"},"editorial_descriptio":{"text":"\u003Ch2 style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003EDay 1: Get Oriented\u003C/h2\u003E\r\n\u003Cp\u003EArrive in Cairns and settle into your resort. Environmentalists will love the new Riley and Flynn for their unbeatable sea views and built-for-lazy pools as much as the hotels’ eco-credentials. From the paperless contact system through to the low food miles (most produce comes from the local region, including the aged beef which happens to be grown on the owner’s farm), the Crystalbrook Collection has been nudging luxury travel into a greener space since it launched in 2018.  \u003C/p\u003E\r\n\u003Cp\u003EThe best way to get to know a city is to get above it. Unpack your walking shoes and make a beeline to Skyrail Rainforest Cableway and take a bird’s eye view of the world’s oldest rainforest. When this 7.5km cable car opened in 1995, it set new sustainable standards for ‘flying’ visitors metres above the canopy of a World Heritage-listed rainforest - without impacting the eco system below.  \u003Cbr\u003E\r\n\u003C/p\u003E\r\n\u003Cp\u003EWhat goes up must come down. Take Skyrail to the top of the range and then come back down on a romantic heritage steam train…or vice versa. The Kuranda Scenic Railway travels through dense rainforest and over steep ravines and picturesque waterfalls to reach the charming rainforest village of Kuranda, some 328 metres above the city. Built between 1882 and 1891, this man-made journey ticks off 15 hand-built tunnels and 37 remarkable bridges.  \u003Cbr\u003E\r\n\u003C/p\u003E\r\n\u003Cp\u003EBack in town, stroll along the Esplanade boardwalk until you get to Prawn Star. Here, four typical trawlers are home to an untypical enterprise. Nets have been cast aside and replaced with bench seats and a fast menu of daily-catch prawns, freshly shucked oysters, juicy cuts of salmon and locally caught bugs. Food doesn’t get fresher than this. \u003Cbr\u003E\r\n\u003C/p\u003E\r\n","readMoreHeight":0,"richText":true,":type":"teq/components/editorial/editorial-description"},"spacer_2068584881_co_1250216337":{"spacerType":"whitespace","paddingSize":"xxsmall",":type":"teq/components/spacer"},"image_925081751":{"componentName":"teq/components/image","src":"/content/dam/teq/consumer/global/images/destinations/tropical-north-queensland/blog-images/hero-banner/2019_TNQ_KurandaSkyrail_Adventure_ReubenNutt_140146.jpg","fileReference":"/content/dam/teq/consumer/global/images/destinations/tropical-north-queensland/blog-images/hero-banner/2019_TNQ_KurandaSkyrail_Adventure_ReubenNutt_140146.jpg","alt":"Skyrail Rainforest Cableway | Kuranda, Cairns","srcUriTemplate":"/au/en/news-and-media/media-resources/story-ideas/seven-days-in-cairns/_jcr_content/root/responsivegrid/image_925081751.coreimg{.width}.jpeg/1698207851899/2019-tnq-kurandaskyrail-adventure-reubennutt-140146.jpeg","uuid":"50e4e553-4183-4304-ac2c-b827d0fad2a0","lazyEnabled":false,"title":"Skyrail Rainforest Cableway | Kuranda, Cairns",":type":"teq/components/image"},"spacer_2068584881_co_91619751":{"spacerType":"whitespace","paddingSize":"xxsmall",":type":"teq/components/spacer"},"editorial_descriptio_485319164":{"text":"\u003Ch2 style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003EDay 2: Discover the World’s Biggest Living Organism\u003C/h2\u003E\r\n\u003Cp\u003ECairns is the jump off point for the Great Barrier Reef and a raft of snorkelling and diving adventures where every flick of the fin is alive with colour and sound.

Take a guided snorkel tour with a Master Reef Guide (one of 60 or so trained guides operating up and down the length of the Great Barrier Reef) and see the underwater world the same way as a marine biologist. Learn how the crew helps scientists grow hundreds of fragments of coral. Submerged on a two-metre floating garden nearby this is part of a bigger insurance plan, ready to restock the Reef if the future requires.  \u003Cbr\u003E\r\n\u003C/p\u003E\r\n\u003Cp\u003EBack in Cairns, choose one of the restaurants along the pretty marina or take a short stroll to Hemingway’s Brewery, a genial ale house with beer named after local legends. Take Betty’s Pitchfork, for example. It’s a zesty drop that plays homage to a local woman who ruled a Port Douglas pub, not with an iron fist, but with a rusty garden tool.\u003C/p\u003E\r\n","readMoreHeight":0,"richText":true,":type":"teq/components/editorial/editorial-description"},"editorial_descriptio_1004969346":{"text":"\u003Ch2 style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003EDay 3: Getting into Green  \u003Cbr\u003E\r\n\u003C/h2\u003E\r\n\u003Cp\u003E \u003C/p\u003E\r\n\u003Cp\u003EYour target today is nature, and the vast wilderness that makes up the Daintree Rainforest north of Cairns.  \u003C/p\u003E\r\n\u003Cp\u003EStop by Mossman Gorge Centre and bask in the 20-year vision of Traditional Owner and Kuku Yalanji Elder Roy Gibson.

Indeed, this is a wonderland, not seen elsewhere and is said to be the inspiration for James Cameron’s blockbuster movie, Avatar, the story about a paradise worth fighting for.
