Walu Wugirriga (Mount Alexandra) Lookout
The first lookout past the river crossing, overlooking the Daintree River mouth, the rainforest hills and Snapper Island in the Coral Sea.
Mount Alexandra Lookout (Indigenous name Walu Wugirriga) lies on the mountain road beyond the Daintree River ferry crossing. From the platform, you can see the mangroves at the Daintree River mouth, its winding channel, and Snapper Island in the Coral Sea beyond. It is the best spot to appreciate where two World Heritage sites, the rainforest and the coral reef, meet. There is roadside parking and interpretive signage, and entry is free. The mountain road has sharp bends, so drive slowly if you are self-driving, and watch for cassowaries crossing the road.
