Better in the Wet
If the rainforest is on your bucket list, don’t let a little weather stop you.
There is a reason for the word ‘rain’ in rainforest. Scenic World's temperate rainforest is brilliant in sunshine, but magical in the rain when mist shrouds the towering cliffs above. As it moves, the mist adds an air of mystery and confounds your sense of distance. The rainforest comes alive: native birds become more active, more vocal and colours change.
