Stay in the mountains or near the Great Barrier Reef while caravan camping near Daintree.
A small, rural town along Daintree River and a protected rainforest, Daintree is a prime stop on a Queensland caravan camping trip. Daintree National Park comprises two distinct areas, which include Mossman Gorge’s dense rainforest along the Main Coast Range and Cape Tribulation’s lowland rainforest, sand beaches, and rugged, hilly landscapes. Go boating and fishing to see marine life and the world-renowned Great Barrier Reef, then find a nearby caravan campsite with flush toilets, potable water, and hot showers. Mowbray National Park lies within the Wet Tropics World Heritage Area and prominently features the mysterious Black Mountain, known as Australia's "Bermuda Triangle." Walking, biking, and horseback riding tracks lead through the park’s eucalypt forest and tropical rainforest. Caravan campgrounds can be found close by with potable water, communal fire areas, and pull-through campsites. A paradise for four-wheel driving, Mount Lewis National Park lies south of Daintree with an adventurous path up the eponymous mountain. Stay at a caravan park after a day of adventure—look out for one providing toilets, potable water, and off-leash pet areas.
