Cape York Tour 2025

Cape York Tour 2025 - 24th July to 14th August 2025 - *TRIP FULL*

Leaving Cairns on the 24th July 2025, we’ll drive to Cooktown via the Creb Track (if open), Bloomfield falls and the Lion’s Den. From here it’s up the East coast via Hope Vale, Elim Beach with the coloured sands, and then onto Bathurst Head via Battlecamp Road. We’ll make our way across to Musgrave Roadhouse with an overnight camp in Lakefield NP. We’ll drive up through Coen and Archer River before heading to Iron Range NP to visit the Lockhart River, Chilli Beach and Cape Weymouth. Then it’s across the Frenchman’s Track to Batavia Downs before heading north again through Moreton Telegraph Station and Bramwell Junction. From here we’ll tackle the OTT to the old vehicle crossing on the south side of the Jardine River. We’ll visit Fruit Bat and Elliot/Twin Falls for a swim. With a bit of back tracking we’ll find the ferry to cross the Jardine then up to camp at Loyalty Beach for a couple nights and visit the tip. We’ll complete the 5 beaches run while we’re up the top and visit the WWII wreckage sites too.

The adventure continues on the way south as we hit the OTT again and Weipa, Pennefather River and The Old Coach Road.
