Skywalk takes hinterland exploration to new heights
The Gold Coast hinterland’s eco offerings have reached a new high with the opening of the Rainforest Skywalk on Tamborine Mountain.
Tamborine Rainforest Skywalk is a 300 metre long canopy walk, soaring 30m above Cedar Creek in parts, with spectacular panoramic views across the valley and rainforest canopies below. Guests begin their walk on a spectacular elevated walkway running through the middle and upper canopies of the rainforest descending gradually to the lower canopy and following points of interest including rock pools and waterfalls, a butterfly lookout, local history enclosure and sheltered rest areas along the way. The walk culminates at the Skywalk Cantilever, where guests are suspended five stories above Cedar Creek. The final stages of the walk return along the rainforest floor to the Eco Centre which includes a gallery, café and other visitor facilities. The walk takes around 45 minutes to complete and prices are $18.50 for adults and $9.50 for children, or $47 for a family of two adults and two children. It is open daily from 9.30am to 4pm. Skywalk is located on Tamborine Mountain Road, North Tamborine. www.rainforestskywalk.com.au
