点评:So we ended up here after a road trip through Port Douglas and the surrounding beaches and lookouts. It was a great drive, but beware - don't think you'll do 100kmh the whole way. It is windy! But it is also very scenic, so that works for me.
As it transpired, we could only fit in the Mossman Gorge in the day we had allotted. In hindsight, I would have allowed more time, as I would like to see the rainforest more in its natural and undeveloped setting. The gorge experience was great, with the visitor centre being decent, and the shuttle bus service the same. The walk around took an hour or so, with two of us opting for the longer loop. My boys just loved the waterhole, and that was a super feature I have seen rarely anywhere else. The setting is lovely, the forest is scenic and a sight to behold. It was just a bit busy and a bit "touristy". I understand that's why it's there, but as I mentioned, I would prefer to have included some extra time in the rainforest proper as well.
Still, I highly recommend any visit to this part of the world includes Mossman Gorge in its itinerary. A simply beautiful location.

结果发现,我们当天只够在莫斯曼峡谷玩一圈。事后想想,我本来应该留出更多时间,因为我想更多地欣赏这片原始自然的雨林。峡谷的体验很棒,游客中心也不错,接驳车服务也不错。绕行一圈大约花了一个小时,我们两个人选择了更长的环线。我的儿子们特别喜欢水潭,这是我在其他地方很少见到的绝妙景观。环境优美,森林景色优美,景色令人叹为观止。只是有点拥挤,有点“游客化”。我明白它在那里的原因,但正如我之前提到的,我更希望在雨林里多待一会儿。
不过,我强烈建议任何前往这片地区的旅行都把莫斯曼峡谷列入行程。那里风景优美。
