The rainforested slopes of the Whitfield Range protect the closest rainforest to Cairns and form the city's backdrop. Walking tracks climb through shady rainforest gullies and dry open forest and grasslands with cycads. Most visitors encounter mound-building brush-turkeys, orange-footed scrubfowl and graceful honeyeaters. Two linked circuit walks provide views over the city, Trinity Bay and the coast to the north. Tackle the short but steep 1.5 kilometre Red Arrow circuit. Add the more demanding Blue Arrow circuit for a 6.6 kilometre (four to five hour) walk with an optional 400 metre sidetrack to a lookout at Mount Lumley Hill (325 metres). Picnic at the lookout between the circuit walks.
