This Wallaman Falls trip from Ingham North Queensland is to the highest, permanent, single-drop waterfall in Australia, Wallaman Falls tumbles 305m (1,000 feet) through a rainbow-fringed cloud of mist to a large pool below. Wallaman Falls is part of the 124,000 hectare Lumholtz National Park and a Wet Tropics World Heritage Area, which protects a diversity of vegetation types ranging from open eucalypt forest to dense rainforest. Open forest dominates the Wallaman Falls ridge tops and rainforest lines the gullies and creeks. The area is home to endangered cassowaries and musky rat-kangaroos.

Stroll on this 3 hour tour some 800 metres along the banks of Stony Creek to learn about the rainforest on the Banggurru walk. Look for platypus in the creek below Wallaman falls or take the 3.2 kilometre Jinda walk into the gorge and enjoy a closer look at Wallaman.
