The Daintree Rainforest in Australia’s Wet Tropics is thought to be the world’s oldest rainforest. Its Gondwana origins prove 135 million years of continuous growth. This evidence can be seen at Cooper Creek Wilderness, which is situated directly below the epicentre, Thornton Peak. Guided interpreted rainforest walks and packages show case the extraordinary grandeur and beauty, the exceptional biodiversity and the extremely ancient stock of plants and animals. Walks are on natural walking trails, traversing outstanding old-growth forest that cannot be seen elsewhere. Guides are inhabitants who love sharing their expertise and enthusiasm. Tours range from two-hour guided day or night tours, to the Cooper Creek Wilderness Experience that includes the walk, a one hour mangrove cruise in search of elusive crocodiles and a delicious lunch beside the Cooper Creek or by combining this tour with an evening meal at a local restaurant and a nocturnal walk.
