Information

Lace up your hiking boots and get ready for unparalleled views over the Wet Tropics World Heritage Area. Accessed via the Old Cairns Track, Windin Falls is a well-deserved reward following a 90min hike each way.Windin Falls is a picturesque area that can be reached quickly, the walking track which is around 90 minutes in each direction is not too difficult but it does include at least one steep descent. It passes through and has views of the Wet Tropics World Heritage Area with its rainforest and open woodland habitat in Atherton Tablelands tropical north Queensland. There is a natural infinity pool at the top of the falls, you can swim here but it can quickly get crowded. Be cautious near the edge of the falls and do not go too close for safety reasons. The starting point is in the car park accessed by a turn off from Topaz Road. Other points of interest in the park include Bartle Frere hiking trail and Lamins Hill Lookout. More info see AllTrails
