The Topaz plateau sits 750m above sea level, surrounded on three sides by World heritage listed rainforest, deep gorges and cascading rivers. Located in the south east corner of the Atherton Tablelands, behind Cairns, this unique area produces a climate with abundant rainfall, mild temperatures without the tropical heat and coastal humidity, and a winter cool enough to enjoy a fireplace.
