The best place to hike in the city of Cairns. From the Red Arrow which is 20 mins walk, the Blue Arrow which is 2 -3 hours walk, the Green Arrow which is 3-5 hours return walk and the new as yet unopened Yellow Arrow, there is something to do for everyone. As a local, I love it for an afternoon social walk with friends to catch up on each other lives and the long walks over the weekend to exercise and burn some serious calories.
Lookouts, rainforest, Worlds largest 'cycads' Lepidozamia hopei
Excellent walks & views well worth the effort.
Great views from peaks
Great park, almost completely untouched except for the paths. There are three main walking tracks, each with lookouts that provide a spectacular view of Cairns. The Red Arrow is the shortest and the easiest, about a kilometer or two long. The Blue Arrow is longer, 5 kilometers or so. If you want a real challenge, the Green Arrow track runs along the entire length of the park, and will take the better part of a day to achieve, but is well worth it!
Good spot to get the heart pumping
Aeroglen is the unique suburb below Mt Whitfield
After a week of soaring temperatures,we at last had a rainy,misty beautiful, wet season day.
Great outdoors
Great natural area, easy access and parking.
Great for walks anytime of the day
If you have nothing to do in Cairns you can walk there a bit. Many jogger in the morning.
