This lodge is located 100 kilometres southwest of Cairns, nestled in 160 acres of lush tropical rainforest. A private wet-tropical rainforest which is yours to explore. With over 100 mammal and bird species found around the property, there are plenty of opportunities to see Australian wildlife.
During your stay, keep an eye out for mammals such as platypus, short-beaked echidna, striped possum, red-legged pademelon and the spectacled flying-fox. Birds such as the wedge-tailed eagle, Australian brush-turkey and the laughing kookaburra. And reptiles such as the chameleon gecko, spotted tree monitor and Boyd’s forest dragon. And more.
