Kuranda National Park, Nature reserve near Cairns, Australia.

The national park covers 27,100 hectares of rainforest and eucalypt forest, forming part of the Wet Tropics World Heritage Area north of Cairns.

The park connects to multiple protected regions, including Mowbray National Park and Barron Gorge National Park, preserving diverse ecological systems.

Visitors access the park through Black Mountain Road from Kennedy Highway, with potential road closures during wet seasons affecting park accessibility.

The Twin Bridges track extends 18 kilometers through the park, offering encounters with southern cassowaries, Lumholtz's tree-kangaroos, and Victoria's riflebirds.
