Description
In Davies Creek National Park, Davies Creek cascades over huge granite boulders as it flows through eucalypt woodland from its source in the Lamb Range. The rare wet sclerophyll forest is home to the endangered northern bettong: a small marsupial found only in a few parts of north Queensland. Camp near the creek and cool off in its deeper pools. Walk to lookouts above Davies Creek Falls, two kilometres beyond the campground. A 1.1 kilometre circuit track leads to a sandy picnic area (where platypus may be seen in the adjacent creek), and then back up a slope dotted with grasstrees. Watch for eastern yellow robins, white-cheeked honeyeaters and white-naped honeyeaters.
