Description

Located one hours drive south west from Cairns, nestled amongst ''Mabi'' rainforest and Halloran's Hill Environmental Park,

The Summit Rainforest Retreat offers Bed and Breakfast rooms, a one bedroom apartment, and three, four or five bedroom holiday houses or conference centre on the Atherton Tablelands, for you or your group's private indulgence.

The Summit Rainforest Retreat is located in the Cairns Highlands, also known as the Atherton Tablelands, in Far North Queensland, Australia. The Retreat is situated on the summit of an extinct volcano and commands the highest point in Atherton. You will love the tranquil rainforest setting with its 180 degree panoramic views. Peace and tranquility is assured on over two hectares of land.

The Summit Rainforest Retreat is unique in its quality, the number of guests it can cater for, its position and native flora and fauna that surrounds it. The extended local area is an ecological wonderland. It is one of the most diverse regions in Australia with four distinct landscapes. A highlight is to visit a 71 hectare private property which is registered as Land for Wildlife. Walks and canoe hire are available to get up close and view native rainforest with some of the inhabitants.
