There are lots of wonderful walks round the Atherton Tablelands taking in the beautiful views, exceptional rainforest and stunning waterways. On your marks, get set, saunter….

Take a stroll round Lake Eacham’s 3km perimeter through lush rainforest overlooking a clear blue crater lake.

Head to Malanda Falls where there are several rainforest walks of about 20 minutes each; look up for tree kangaroos and check out the magnificent falls with a swimming pool at the bottom – built by locals so long ago it’s heritage listed. Now that’s cool.
Ellinjaa Falls
Otherwise Ellinjaa Falls may be the ticket – there’s a 200 metre path to the base of the roaring falls and if you are in luck, you may be joined by turtles or a platypus. Please note the steps are steep on this walk.
