About 12km east of Marreba on the Kennedy Hwy, the best way to get into the creek is to park in a bay just on the Cairns side of the creek and walk back. To the east of the road is Dinden West Forest Reserve. The creek has permanent flow and there is a track along the creek in quite good habitat if you don’t mind the detritus of human messiness that is quite evident here.
No camping is advised here
