About the place
Where
In Julatten's rainforest high country, about an hour and a half northwest of Cairns. Kingfisher Park Birdwatchers Lodge sits at 440 metres altitude—cooler than the coast—and is within walking distance of the town centre.
Details
Fully self-contained units, bunkhouse rooms and a campground are set inside a five-hectare nature reserve of rainforest, open orchard and the permanent waters of Bushy Creek. The lodge is built for nature-based stays and wildlife photography, with simple, practical accommodation that puts you close to the action. More than 215 bird species have been recorded here, plus possums, bandicoots, forest dragons, pythons and giant frogs. Morning bird walks and evening spotlighting may be available for a small fee, depending on guide availability and numbers.
Amenities
Walking tracks through rainforest and orchard, permanent creek waters and plentiful wildlife make this a birdwatching and photography hotspot. Campground and self-contained units offer flexible stays. Wake up to cool mountain air and a dawn chorus of birds; guided morning walks and nighttime spotlighting add extra wildlife opportunities.
