The Wet Tropics of Queensland World Heritage Area is a region of spectacular scenery and rugged topography with fast-flowing rivers, deep gorges and numerous waterfalls. Mountain summits provide expansive vistas of the oldest surviving rainforest in the world. The exceptional coastal scenery combines tropical rainforest, white sandy beaches and fringing reefs just offshore; a unique feature on a global scale (WTMA, 2010). The World Heritage Area covers nearly 900,000 hectares from Townsville to Cooktown in northern Queensland. It is predicted that some 270,000 people will live within the Wet Tropics region by 2016
