Bloomfield Track

The Bloomfield Track, which is also known as the Coast Road, is a controversial four-wheel-drive road in Far North Queensland, Australia. The road's construction through untouched wilderness was the cause of protests and blockades in the early 1980s.
The road was completed in 1984, connecting Cape Tribulation to Cooktown. This route is an alternative to the Mulligan Highway further inland.〔 〕 It passes over the Donovan and Cowie Ranges. To reduce the environment impact the road was designed with few switchbacks and bends on the climbs resulting in patches of steep gradients over the ranges.〔 The track itself is 30 km in length.
The road is only partially sealed and may be impassable after heavy rains. Access to Bloomfield Falls and the aboriginal community of Wujal Wujal is provided by the road which also crosses the Bloomfield River. Tourism along the Bloomfield Track has been popular. Visitors are drawn to the pristine rainforest, swimming holes, creeks and beaches.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Coast Road )
==Access==
The track begins at Cape Tribulation and winds it's way north through the Daintree Rainforest, crossing many creeks in the process then it ends at the aboriginal community Wujal Wujal. Though 4wd is recommended, 2wd vehicles can traverse the track in winter with minimal difficulty. Prior to 2013, access to Wujal Wujal via the crossing on the Bloomfield River was quite risky as flash flooding and high tides would block the small causeway crossing the river. This could trap travellers on the southern side until the river level went down. Following the 2011 floods an almost 4m high concrete bridge was constructed across the river, reducing the need to monitor the tides and the bridge makes crossing safer year round.
