However, no responsibility is accepted for for any inaccuracies or for any mishap that may arise out of the use of the BNT, or the Guidebooks, or this WWW site. The information given in these WWW pages is by itself insufficient for planning a trek or for making use of the Trail. The Trail heads south from Cooktown through the tropical rainforests of Cedar Bay National Park to Daintree and Mossman before turning west into an area which is harsh and dry, in stark contrast to the coastal areas.
Crocodiles are a danger and water can be elusive inland.
This section should not be travelled alone. Ranges from quite easy to very difficult. Mostly not suitable for bicycles or horsedrawn vehicles. Water conservation measures necessary. Tropical- very hot and dry during the dry season, very hot and impossibly wet during the wet season.
