Mowbray

Magical Mowbray. An almost hidden valley, just minutes southwest of the resort village of Port Douglas, this hinterland is a stunning mix of lush green rainforest and bushland surrounds.

The valley is framed by mountain peaks, part of the dramatic Macalister Range, and at its heart are the Mowbray River and Spring Creek. This is truly the landscape of the Wet Tropics, home to a scattering of lifestyle properties, rainforest retreats and rural residences, usually on acreage.. The fertile lands are perfect for those with a green thumb: from tropical fruit to exotic gardens, the volcanic soil and reliable rainfall make it a gardener’s or hobby farmer’s dream.

The natural beauty of the valley is complemented by a relaxed, country atmosphere in keeping with the space and yet the convenience of Port Douglas shopping and restaurants is only 10 minutes away. If you are looking for space, sustainable living, a tree change, this location should be considered.
