Just 90 minutes north of Cairns you cross the Daintree River and enter the Greater Daintree Rainforest, which has existed for 110 million years.
Location:
Sitting half way between Cairns and Cape Tribulation, the Daintree Wilderness Lodge is just north of the river the perfect place to begin your North Queensland adventure.
Facilities:
Relax in the tranquil setting of the natural rock pool deep in the rainforest, or cool down in crystal clear spring waters on the property. Cassowaries, Boyd Forest Dragons and other endemic wildlife can often be seen on the grounds. Cycads serves modern Australian cuisine.
Accommodation:
This small, intimate property has only seven rooms, linked by raised boardwalks to protect the rainforest floor.
