Boardwalk Maintenance

Red Peak and Barron Falls

We have commenced boardwalk maintenance works at Red Peak and Barron Falls.

 

During these ongoing works, short sections of the boardwalk will be closed; however, the majority will remain accessible at all times, minimising disruption to your experience.

 

Our complimentary Ranger Guided Tours at Red Peak will continue and the Rainforest Discovery Zone, The Edge Lookout,  the CSIRO Rainforest Interpretation Centre and all restrooms will remain accessible throughout this time.

 

We apologise for any inconvenience and look forward to delivering an enhanced visitor experience in the near future.

2020 Skyrail Rainforest Cableway Maintenance Closure Dates

** Skyrail remains temporarily closed **

 

Pre-scheduled maintenance was initially planned for several dates, including November this year. However, due to the changes in operations following COVID-19 these dates* are now subject to change.

 

At Skyrail, we pride ourselves on our high standards of safety and reliability. To maintain these standards, it is necessary to undertake preventative maintenance works which sometimes requires the closure of the cableway for periods of time.

 

  • *Skyrail is scheduled to be closed for maintenance on Tuesday 17th, Wednesday 18th & Thursday 19th November.
