Parks & Nature
This is the shortest circuit and involves lots of steps. To get the best views you have to start the Blue Arrow and go as far as the first lookout - before turning around and going back down. About 20 minutes walk. Great fitness.

This continues after the Red Arrow and I think 5.4 km through the rainforest. This is a track and markers need to be followed to not lose your way.

A great locals spot for a swim - only a small area with 2 picnic tables but perfect for a cool off and straight off the highway.
Harvey Creek Scenic Reserve
Harvey Creek RoadA great locals spot for a swim - only a small area with 2 picnic tables but perfect for a cool off and straight off the highway.
This is a magical spot - but involves a decent walk up an incline to the waterfalls - but it is a spectacular area. The top of these falls provides the South Side of Cairns drinking water.
Turn off the highway and follow the road to the end - where there is a parking lot. This requires your own transport.
