    Paronella Park is a beautiful location and the history alone is worth a visit. I enjoyed the day tour but I think it could be longer and more comprehensive. The night tour was lovely but very short.

    The guide, Mandy was over the top with cheesy jokes, inuendo. Felt awful for a couple there who she kept making references to about when he was going to pop the question etc. References to how Jose was a lucky man, won the jackpot because he ended up with his former wife's younger sister.

    The cruise was absolutely fantastic. Highly recommend this to all my friends.
  • North QLD’s Paronella Park is home to beautiful gardens, remarkable architecture, and an incredible story. You may enter not knowing what to expect, but you will leave with cherished memories of this adventure wonderland. Located at Mena Creek, the park is a unique attraction in Australia, surrounded by a lush rainforest backdrop and plenty to see and do. The best part about this experience is that after all your exploring you get to settle down and unwind in the free overnight camping lot (included with your ticket).

    You also get to go on a 45-minute guided walk and discover the many highlights of the park. Learn about the fascinating story of Jose Paronella's dreams and vision which lead to the park's creation. For lunch, drop by the cafe, and follow it up with a scenic botanical walk. If you’re up for it, they also have both day and darkness tour options running regularly throughout the week!

  • Accessibility

    • For guests with mobility restrictions: Paronella Park is set on 13 acres, on 2 different levels. The 2 levels are joined by a staircase with 47 steps. The park offers a courtesy vehicle (down a service road), for you to be able to utilize if you cannot use the staircase. You would need to be able to get in and out of a 4WD vehicle to make use of the courtesy vehicle.

    Additional information

    • If you’re hungry, enjoy a meal at the open-air Café on the Deck, or bring your own picnic. You can also walk 200 meters down the road to Mena Creek Hotel.
