Overview
This 43km road is mostly unsealed. It runs from the Kennedy Highway just east of Kuranda to the Mossman-Mount Molloy Road near Julatten. The road traverses both the Kuranda and Mowbray National Parks as well as state forest and private land. This can be a very rewarding area for visiting birders.
