Mossman Gorge Swimming Spot

Highlight • River

This popular swimming spot along the Mossman River sits within Mossman Gorge, where clear water flows over large granite boulders to form natural pools. Surrounded by dense rainforest, it’s a common place to stop for a swim while walking through the gorge. It can get busy during the day, so visiting later in the afternoon is usually quieter.

Rainforest Circuit Track

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Rainforest Circuit Track in Mossman Gorge winds through dense, moisture-rich rainforest within the Wet Tropics World Heritage Area. Starting near Rex Creek bridge, the track moves through shaded forest filled with strangler figs, epiphytes, and regular butterfly activity. A small lookout along the way offers views towards Mount Demi, breaking up the enclosed canopy. Conditions are humid year-round, with roots and steps underfoot, so surfaces can be slippery after rain.

Wurrmbu Creek

Highlight • River

Wurrmbu Creek is a quieter swimming spot within Mossman Gorge, where clear water flows over rocks to form smaller, more sheltered pools. Surrounded by dense rainforest, it feels more tucked away than the main river areas and is often less crowded.

Super cool trail, again right through the Daintree rainforest. Such a shame that Komoot doesn't have sound 😉
