The Bloomfield Falls (Aboriginal: Wujal Wujal is a cascade waterfall on the Bloomfield River near Cape Tribulation, close to Wujal Wujal, that is located in the UNESCOWorld Heritage–listed Daintree National Park in Queensland, Australia. The traditional custodians of the land surrounding the Bloomfield Falls are the Indigenous Australian Kuku Yalanji clan. Access to the waterfall is provided via the Bloomfield Track, south of Cooktown. In the wet season it is not possible to visit the falls
It had been a week with no rain so it was time to visit the Wujal Wujal Falls. We parked in the parking area. There are two tracks….one created path which we went on, and we returned by walking on the dried river bed full of great rocks following the river.
Wujal Wujal is the local Kuku-Yalanji clan name meaning ‘many falls‘, highlighting the many sacred waterfalls in their landscape. https://www.queensland.com/au/en/places-to-see/destination-information/p-5aaa33f0f47bff6b37873491-wujal-wujal
There is the Art Gallery and a cafe, currently closed, and just down the road past the bridge and road to Daintree, is the Community Garden. The town is further down the main road and there is a Community Hall, a general store and the Council offices.
