Josephine Falls is a great place to cool off as you sight see around the Far North. It’s about 60 minutes south of Cairns on the way to Innisfail. The top pool is closed to swimmers but the bottom pool below the falls is open to swimming.

Just an hour south of Cairns, a tropical haven awaits. Nestled in the foothills of Queensland’s highest mountain range, Bartle Frere, Josephine Falls is often referred to as “nature’s playground” with a natural rockslide being the main attraction of the beautiful cascades. It’s an easy 600m walk to the bottom swimming hole with wheelchair access available to the viewing platform at the top pool. While it looks tempting, swimming in the top pool is prohibited but there’s plenty of space at the bottom pool to spread out.
