Juwun Wet Tropics Walk 

0 reviews | Write a review

The Juwun walk starts at Blencoe Falls and follows the Herbert River downstream to Yamanie in the Girringun National Park and you will need to allow 4 to 6 days to complete the walk. The walk passes through the traditional lands of three Aboriginal groups - the Warrgamay, Warungnu and Girramay.

From Blencoe Falls to Blanket Creek Wind (10.5km) your way through 9km of open forest before you reach the escarpment. This countryside may appear dry and desolate, but it offers a lot to see. Look for emus and kangaroos resting from the heat and listen for laughing kookaburras or screeching sulphur-crested cockatoos.

The track then winds its way to the top of the escarpment above Blanket Creek before dropping steeply onto the banks of the Herbert River. This is the Blanket Creek bush camp, your home for the night. Beware! As refreshing as a dip may appear, do not swim, as the river is home to estuarine crocodiles.
