About Far North Queensland
Far North Queensland is the northernmost coastal region of Queensland. It is full of tropical rainforests, extremely remote communities and for the most part very hard to get into. The northern city of Cairns is a good base with a lot of tourist infrastructure to begin to explore. In June 2024, the Cape York Peninsula was added toUNESCO's tentative listas a mixed site (under criteria i, v, vi, vii, viii, ix and x). If/when it does become a world-heritage site, it'll become the third site to pass 7 criteria, and the second in Australia (afterTasmanian Wilderness).
