Cape York has become accessible to the new breed of intrepid explorers willing to deal with the rough and tumble conditions of the dirt roads, extreme weather events and remote locations.

The tropical rainforests of Iron Range National Park are closer to Papua New Guinea then to the tropical rainforests of the Wet Tropics (Cairns area).

Cape York is a biodiversity hot-spot, with amazing plants and animals found nowhere else on the planet. The variety of vegetation communities in Cape York rival any other landscape in Australia. These landscapes are home to unique communities of wildlife which can at time be hard to see.
