At a glance
Skypark Cairns by AJ Hackett is an adventure park set among rainforest around 20 minutes from Cairns. The venue combines high-adrenaline activities with a viewing experience for visitors who prefer to stay closer to ground level, creating an outing that can suit active participants, spectators and groups with different interests.
Bungy jumping is the park’s central attraction, with a range of jump styles available for those looking for different ways to take the leap. The setting adds a strong sense of height and movement, with the rainforest canopy forming the backdrop to the activities. The Giant Swing provides another major thrill, sending participants through the canopy at speed.
The park also has a viewing platform with views towards the Reef and surrounding rainforest. This gives non-participants a way to take in the landscape while friends or family members take part in the activities. The atmosphere is focused on adventure, anticipation and shared experiences rather than a conventional sightseeing stop.
Skypark suits visitors seeking an active day out, as well as groups that include both thrill-seekers and more relaxed observers. The mix of activities means a visit does not have to be limited to one type of jump, while the viewing platform offers a quieter alternative within the same rainforest setting. The venue’s format also works for spectators who want to accompany participants without taking part in every activity.
The experience is best approached as an organised adventure attraction, with bookings and venue information worth checking before arrival. Practical details can vary according to the chosen activity, so participants should review the relevant booking information and raise any specific requirements with the venue. The location in Smithfield places the park within easy reach of the city while retaining a distinctly rainforest-based setting.
