Undara Experience
Explore some of the longest lava tubes in the world.
Overview
Located a 3.5-hour drive inland from Cairns, the Undara Experience is billed as a truly incredible way to experience the Gulf Savannah. Many visitors are drawn here to explore the mind-blowing 160-kilometre lava tubes which are some of the longest in the world — but there's a whole lot more discover while you're in this part of the world.
Start your day with breakfast in the bush with billy tea and cheeky kookaburras for company. Then, take a bush walk around the edge of a volcanic crater at Kalkani Crater and finish the day with a sunset wildlife tour complete with cheese and sparkling wine. Consider yourself a night owl? You can stay up late with your fellow travellers and enjoy yarns by the campfire. Accommodation options range from huts and tents to restored railway carriage lodgings and homesteads. The grounds also feature a billabong-style swimming pool, plus a licensed bistro and cafe. The Undara Experience also hosts the Undara Outback Rock and Blues Festival annually, with more than 12 hours of live music over the ANZAC Day long weekend.
