The Terraces is another wonder of the Palm Creek area and arguably the better (and easier) of the three attractions to see! It is considered to be the best walk in North Queensland by many. This area is thought to have been discovered by Townsville Bushwalking Club in ~1966. The other two points of interest are Hidden Falls and The Cascades. If you would like to do this walk, it is recommended to go with the Townsville Bushwalking Club, as they have access with the property owner.

UPDATE 2019- present: This area is no longer accessible via the Palm Creek Eco Park and is only accessible via private property. The Townsville Bushwalking Club still have access, however. If you're keen, join them on a hike to explore this area.
