Daintree Romancer

Visit the picturesque township of Mossman, nestled at the foot of the mountains and surrounded by green fields of sugar cane. There are many things to do in the town; art galleries, historic pubs, country stores and the Saturday Markets where you can sample some of the celebrated local produce. Five minutes west in the southern part of the World Heritage-listed Daintree National Park is Mossman Gorge. Take in the beauty of pristine rainforest, cool streams, towering mountains and huge granite boulders. Home to the Kuku Yalanji Indigenous people, this is one of the few places in Australia where travellers can gain an insight into the special relationship they have with the rainforest through a guided rainforest walk, traditional dance performances and artefact displays that portray their rich cultural heritage.
