Daintree waterfalls are often places you can admire but not swim, due to the presence of crocodiles, but that is not the case at Cassowary Falls. Located in the Mossman Gorge section of the Daintree National Park, a part of the Wet Tropics World Heritage Area, Cassowary Falls is a secluded waterfall that tumbles into a cool, pool of pristine freshwater. A place of peace, beauty and serenity. A place to pause and admire the majesty of nature, amongst a rainforest landscape which has existed here since the time of dinosaurs. Rainforest which has been internationally recognised for its intrinsic value as a place of natural beauty, home to ancient plants and animals found nowhere else on earth. The Gateway to the Cassowary Falls property is a vital habitat, alive with creatures great and small. Bordering the Daintree Rainforest, many native animals are regularly seen here including Eastern Water Dragons, the Boyd’s Forest Dragon, Ulyssess Butterfly, Cairns Birdwing Butterfly and the creature from which the name derives, the majestic Southern Cassowary. This is also a bird-watchers paradise and the Cassowary is just the beginning; the elusive Red-Bellied Pitta is highly sought after by birdwatchers and migrates here every December. Victoria Riflebirds add their loud calls to the rainforest soundtrack, joined by numerous species of Parrots, King-fishers and much more. Source: www.cassowaryfalls.com.au/the-falls
