Atherton Tableland

Essentially there are 3 routes from Cairns up into its hinterland, the Atherton Tableland. This gallery travels the Rex Range Road from outside Mossman, up into the ranges through Julatten to Mount Molloy, south past Lake Mitchell and the Wetlands Reserve to Mareeba and on to Lake Barrine, returning to Mareeba to pick up the Cairns-Kuranda road. In reality we also travelled the highway from Yungaburra down to Gordonvale on the coast.

Most images captured in RAW format on Nikon D300. Earlier images have been scanned from 35mm transparency. All are available for licensing. Please visit www.travelgame.org.
