Craving an escape into a world of cascading waterfalls, lush rainforests, and refreshing swimming holes? Look no further than Paluma Range National Park, a hidden gem nestled within the Wet Tropics World Heritage Area of Queensland, Australia. This national park boasts waterfalls that offer unique experiences for nature enthusiasts and adventure seekers alike.

Your adventure begins at Ethel Creek Falls, an easily accessible waterfall surrounded by towering rainforest trees and the viewing platform offering a panoramic vista of cascading water. Venture deeper into the park to discover the secluded beauty of Little Crystal Creek, a slightly harder trail with the reward of a pristine waterfall cascading into a crystal-clear pool surrounded by lush rainforest. Don’t forget about the crown jewel of Paluma Range National Park, Jourama Falls. The 3-kilometre trek in will take you through the canopy and culminate at a refreshing pool. The waterfalls are just the beginning. The park offers a variety of hiking trails to explore the diverse ecosystem. Keep your eyes peeled for colourful birds, unique insects, and maybe a shy wallaby or cassowary (observe wildlife from a safe distance).

Whether you’re a seasoned hiker or a nature enthusiast looking for a refreshing escape, Paluma Range caters to all. With its diverse waterfalls, scenic trails, and tranquil atmosphere, the park promises an unforgettable adventure.
