Overview
Mossman Gorge sits at the southern end of Daintree National Park, where the Mossman River carves a valley of cool, crystal-clear water ideal for walking trails and swimming. There's no entry fee for the gorge itself, but the roughly 2km stretch from the Cultural Centre to the gorge requires the shuttle bus, which costs around AUD 14 for adults, AUD 7 for children (5-15), and about AUD 35 for a family ticket. From Cairns it's about a 1 hour 15 minute drive. Details may change; please verify before visiting.

Gorge entry is free; shuttle bus approx. AUD 14 adult, AUD 7 child, AUD 35 family.
