The Daintree Lowland Rainforest is the only place on Earth where two World Heritage sites exist side-by-side.

If we could buy just one property in the Daintree Lowland Rainforest for conservation Lot 157 Cape Tribulation Road at Diwan would be the one. The endangered Cassowary, rare Bennett’s Tree-kangaroo, and the Musky Rat-kangaroo are all found here, however, on this 8.0937-hectare property, it is the rainforest itself that is exceptionally important.

Rare, endangered, and endemic, plants found on Lot 157 Cape Tribulation Road justify its immediate purchase and protection.
