Daintree National Park
Populated with ancient rainforest, coastal mangroves, silky moss-covered rocks, babbling streams and rugged mountains, the Daintree National Park is an area of quite spectacular natural beauty that merges into the rich marine ecosystem of the Great Barrier Reef. Saltwater crocodiles laze on the banks of the Daintree River and a vast diversity of birdlife nestle in lush canopies.
This ancient land is equally rich in cultural heritage, protected by its custodians, the Kuku Yalanji people. Discover traditional Dreamtime stories at Mossman Gorge, marvel at indigenous rock art and swim in pristine waterfalls.
