Smooth granite rocks, cool pools and stunning
waterfalls set in eucalypt forests give a distinctive character
to this National Park camping area bordering the World Heritage
Area. One kilometre (.6 mile) from the campground is a series of
short walking tracks along the creek and overlooking the top of
the falls with spectacular views of the Tablelands. A permit is
required from DNR Atherton (4091-1844) to travel past the top of
Davies Creek Falls. For information about Davies Creek campground,
contact QPWS Cairns on 4052-3096.
How to get there
Look for the signposted turnoff to Davies Creek about 10km (6 miles)
from Mareeba and 30km (18 miles) from Kuranda. Follow the unsealed
road for 6km (3.7 miles) and you will reach the parking area and
campground on your left.
