Wheelchair Accessible Walks in Queensland National Parks

Queensland, a jewel in Australia’s crown, is not just known for its shimmering beaches, but also for its commitment to inclusivity. A testament to this commitment is the myriad of wheelchair-accessible walks available in its national parks, allowing everyone to immerse themselves in its natural beauty.

1. Barron Gorge National Park, Cairns

Just 27km north-west of Cairns, Barron Gorge National Park is a sanctuary of natural wonders. The Din Din Barron Falls boardwalk, especially designed for those with accessibility requirements, offers a serene journey leading to The Edge Lookout. If you’re seeking an elevated view, the Skyrail Rainforest Cableway is a breathtaking experience.

2. Daintree National Park, Cairns & Great Barrier Reef:

At Cape Tribulation, the Daintree National Park unfurls itself. Visitors can meander through three accessible boardwalks – Marrdja, Dubuji, and Kulki. For a deep dive into the region’s ecosystem, the Daintree Discovery Centre is an educational haven.
