Living in Kuranda
Just 25km northwest of Cairns is Kuranda our “Village in the Rainforest”. Surrounded by World Heritage Rainforest and adjacent to the Baron Gorge National Park, Kuranda is a well-known tourist destination and has been since the early 1900's. Here you can find a treasure at the Heritage Markets, enjoy local musicians while you dine along the main street, or take a hike though rainforest. You can get your wildlife fix at Birdworld, the Australian Venom Zoo, Australian Butterfly Sanctuary or Koala Gardens.
The Village in the Rainforest concept was promoted from the 1970s in a bid to boost tourism as well as attract those seeking a bohemian enclave in which to reside. Today just over 3000 people call Kuranda home.
