About Dubuji Boardwalk
The Dubuji boardwalk is in the Cape Tribulation section of Daintree National Park, beside Myall Beach. It was built so visitors can experience the lowland forest without stepping on the fragile swamp soil.
The route is circular, about 1.2 km, and takes around 45 minutes. It passes fan palm groves, swamp forest and mangroves along a creek. Signs along the way explain how plants and animals live in this waterlogged environment.
With luck you may see stick insects, lizards and forest birds; the cassowary, a large rare bird in the area, occasionally appears on roads and trails. The boardwalk is flat and has wheelchair access.
The public-use area has parking, restrooms and picnic tables, and a short trail links the boardwalk to Myall Beach.
