Daintree Rainforest
Experience · Queensland, Australia
The world's oldest continuously surviving rainforest (180m years), running from Mossman Gorge north to Cape Tribulation where rainforest meets the reef. UNESCO-listed and home to cassowaries, tree kangaroos, and saltwater crocs.
What to do
Mossman Gorge for the swimming holes and the Indigenous Dreamtime walk. Cape Tribulation for the beach where reef meets rainforest. Night-spotlighting tour for tree kangaroos and possums.
Where to stay
Silky Oaks Lodge (Baillie Lodges) at Mossman is the standout. Daintree Ecolodge for something quieter inland.
