Winter in Queensland

James was our chauffeur today - first stop Mossman Gorge Discovery Centre from where we did a self guided tour of the gorge.

Caught the shuttle bus to the beginning of the walk, first to a lookout with views of the Mossman River and the mountain ranges beyond. The track includes two sections of elevated boardwalk which pass through the lower rainforest canopy.
Next section is a circuit track beginning just past the Rex Creek suspension bridge. On the left, 80m from the bridge a small lookout provides views of Manjal Dimbi (Mount Demi). A little way past the lookout, the track divides to form the circuit that meanders through the rainforest with access to the river in parts.

After eating our picnic lunch at the centre and admiring the artworks in the discovery centre, we set off to Daintree Village and explored the surrounding area.

Back at Port Douglas we went up to the lookout on Flagstaff Hill then back to camp where James and Annette continued to spoil us with dinner!Читать далее
