How to get there
Bus
Recommended
Trans North Bus & Coach operates between Cairns and Atherton Tablelands towns, but is not a practical option for direct access to the waterfalls. Travelers would need to walk from the nearest town.
Car
Recommended
The most popular method is by car, a 1.5-2 hour drive from Cairns. Take Gillies Range Road (State Route 52) or the Bruce Highway (A1) to the Palmerston Highway. The waterfall circuit is along Theresa Creek Road.
