DAINTREE WILDERNESS LODGE (Australia)

Named one of the Top 50 Lodges In the World by National Geographic,

Daintree is run in partnership with the local Kuku Yalanji tribe, allowing
guests a rare chance to immerse themselves in the culture of Australian

Aborigines.

The lodge is set in the Daintree Rainforest, the world’s oldest, which is part of the

Wet Tropics of Queensland (a UNESCO World Heritage Site) on
Australia’s northeast coast.

The landscape looks like something out of Jurassic Park, surrounded by sandy
beaches, rugged mountains, waterfalls and pristine forests. The area contains
around 65% of Australia’s bat and butterfly species; 30% of the frog, reptile and
marsupial species; and 18% of the bird species.

The lodge’s Advanced Eco Certification ensures your stay in their elevated
treehouse-style villas makes a minimal impact on the pristine environment.

Activities include painting workshops using ocher from a nearby waterfall and
hiking tours to explore the ancient, otherworldly plants of the forest. And the
Great Barrier Reef Marine Park is less than an hour away.
