Mossman Gorge, Queensland

Mossman Gorge in Far North Queensland is a place we have visited and I've walked along it for a short way a few years ago.  4,500 km from home here in Launceston, so it takes a long time to drive there.  The Gorge is a gateway to the World Heritage listed Daintree Rainforest in Tropical Queensland. The water is clear and cascades over ancient granite boulders, lush walking paths, and has deep Indigenous cultural significance.

As you can see below there is a swinging bridge, but I didn't go over that.  I've placed a link to the cultural center and there are more photo and information there about the Gorge if you wish to visit the center from this blog.

  1. A tranquil, verdant, and fantastic place. We could almost hear the sound of the waterfalls.
    I don't know if I would have the courage to cross that bridge, but I think the curiosity to see what was on the other side would win out 😊
    Have a great week my friend

  2. Hello Margaret. With the heat we're having here, I would jump straight into the water I see in your photo... It looks like such a vast area, doesn't it? Are there any places for hikers to stay, or is it a completely wild natural area? To be honest, the moment I saw it, it reminded me of epic worlds like The Lord of the Rings. What a magnificent place.
