This park's landscapes are breathtaking. Blencoe Falls tumbles 90 metrea into a rocky pool, before cascading a further 230 metres to the hoop pine-studded valley below. Eventually, the water flows into the Herbert River, which winds through a gorge framed by towering cliffs more than 100 metres high.
Take the five kilometre Jabali walk through open eucalypt forest to Blencoe Falls lookout. Look for emus or the elegant whiptail wallaby, and listen for kookaburras or sulphur-crested cockatoos. Experienced bushwalkers can enjoy a four to six day hike through the Herbert River Gorge, part of the Wet Tropics Great! Walk.
