Welcome to the Daintree National Park
The 140 km. journey from Cairns to Cape Tribulation takes you to the amazing Daintree National Park.
The 140 km. long Great Barrier Reef Drive takes you from the city to the jungle. After you cross the cable ferry on the Daintree river you enter a different Jurassic Park like world. Make sure you don’t get carried away exploring the attractions between Cairns and Port Douglas because you will need a few days to see everything in the amazing Daintree National Park.
Although the offical boundary of this park is at Mossman Gorge, the rain forest north of the river is the oldest and most fascinating part. Easiest ways to access this ancient eco-system is at several of the National Park board walks; Jindalba, Marrdja and Dubuji. Moderately fit people can do the hike up Mount Sorrow, the mountain that towers over Cape Tribulation, this is a return trip of about five hours and should not be undertaken in wet weather as the steep hillsides get slippery.
