Just an hour’s drive with your campervan you can get to Kuranda or the Atherton Tablelands. Furthermore the gorgeous landscapes, magnificent waterfalls, rolling hills and especially the crater formed lakes will stir your emotions.  Travellers Tip and by the way if you are travelling in a motorhome or a good value Travelwheels Cairns campervan hire van, you will discover many RV and caravan friendly towns close by.  Many of them have camp sites and holiday parks especially for campervans with cheap overnight rates.  Alternatively why not read our guide to free camping on the East Coast of Australia.  This is a good way to save money on your accommodation costs on the road.

We recommend taking regular stops to especially experience the magic of the Tablelands.  For example why not take your camper van for a mini road trip to the amazing Hypipamee Crater and enjoy the view! It is 61 meters wide and 85 deep from the water surface! Together with it being a free thing to do, the walk up to the viewing platform is a must do activity and no charge!
