Location : Lake Tinaroo and surrounding Atherton Tablelands

Comfortable year round

Lake Tinaroo and the Atherton Tablelands is one of Cairns and Tropical North Queensland’s best kept secrets.

Located just one hour from Cairns city, this region is elevated by two mighty mountain ranges. The altitude provides a more temperate climate, which is comfortable year round and provides respite from the hot and humid coastal weather.

The sweeping mountain ranges, cloaked in World Heritage protected ancient Tropical Rainforest which roll across the Atherton Tablelands are home to a diverse array of flora and fauna. They provide a picturesque backdrop to quaint little country towns, breathtaking waterfalls and fertile farmlands which has earned the Tablelands a reputation for it’s amazing food trail – from organic dairies, chocolate, coffee & tea plantations, wineries and distilleries.

Meantime the calm waters of Lake Tinaroo provide water sports enthusiasts with a plethora of activities to choose from, including: fishing, sailing, waterskiing, swimming, canoeing and wind surfing.
