Why it's worth checking out
Big Mowbray Falls sits on Black Mountain Road in Julatten, near Port Douglas north of Cairns in Tropical North Queensland. With 7 reviews behind its 3.9 rating, it's a much-loved spot.
The appeal is a lovely walk to a waterfall through the rainforest — a track leading to Big Mowbray Falls amid lush green surrounds, a genuine favourite for a walk, a swim spot, a photo and connecting with nature in the beautiful Julatten and Port Douglas hinterland. It's a lovely, free outing.
Rainforest tracks and waterfalls have changing conditions and seasonal considerations — water levels can rise quickly after rain — so check current details, distances and any advisories before you set out. Bring plenty of water, sun protection, sturdy footwear and take care around the water.
