Discover Paronella Park

Channel your inner Indiana Jones as you wander upon an abandoned Spanish-style castle, a heritage-listed ruin steeped in the romance of a bygone era. Hidden in the lush heart of the rainforest, just over 40 km northwest of Mission Beach, this extraordinary site feels like a world lost to time.

Cross the enchanting suspension bridge as it sways gently above a cascading waterfall, or stroll beneath the towering Kauri Avenue — a majestic corridor of 30-to-40 metre high pine trees that rise like ancient guardians of the forest.
