Goldsborough Valley Camping Area

Goldsborough Valley Camping Area sits within Wooroonooran National Park, nestled below the rugged Bellenden Ker Range in Queensland's Wet Tropics World Heritage Area, roughly half an hour south of Cairns.

The shady campground lies directly adjacent to the Mulgrave River, whose clear waters and deep pools make it a natural draw for swimmers and canoeists — paddling is considered best between March and May.

The site includes fire ring and toilet facilities, and serves as the northwestern trailhead for the 19-kilometre Goldfield Trail.

From here, hikers and mountain bikers can head into lush lowland rainforest, with the full trail crossing a saddle between Queensland's two highest peaks, Bartle Frere and Bellenden Ker, before descending to the Boulders Scenic Reserve near Babinda.
