Cairns Botanic Gardens Guided Night Walk - 2 Hours

Experience a guided night walk through the Cairns Botanic Gardens Rainforest. As the sun sets and the forest comes alive, you’ll discover an incredible variety of nocturnal wildlife rarely seen during the day. From frogs like the White-lipped tree and the Northern Stony Creek frog to net-casting spiders such as the mirror-ball or giant orb-weaver spiders, every walk is unique and full of surprises. But don’t worry, these creatures are usually tucked away on trunks and branches, minding their own business.

The rainforest is also home to a fascinating array of nocturnal mammals and birds. Look out for micro-bats, Papuan frogmouths, striped possums, or even an echidna shuffling through the undergrowth. With expert guidance from your host, you’ll gain fascinating insights into each animal’s behaviour, habitat, and role in the ecosystem. With torches provided and small group sizes, this is the perfect adventure for photography lovers and wildlife enthusiasts, keen to experience the rainforest in a whole new light.
