Daintree National Park is a vast wilderness area located in far North Queensland, Australia. Characterised by dense tropical rainforests - including the oldest rainforest on the planet - the park is comprised of two sections - Mossman Gorge, with the Mossman River cascading over massive granite boulders - and Cape Tribulations, with its rainforest-clad mountains sweeping down to long stretches of glorious white sandy beaches. The park boasts remarkable biodiversity as well as high levels of endemism. From kangaroos that live in trees to six-foot-tall prehistoric birds and numerous saltwater crocodiles, the area is home to some truly unusual species. Over half of Australia's bird species, a third of its mammals and frogs, and more than a quarter of its reptiles inhabit the park.
