- Additional information
Beware of the post Code, 4871 is generic for Cape York, but Ayton is between Cooktown and the Bloomfield River. Access is reasonably sure by Cooktown, but may be difficult on the Daintree Route as there are many coastal rivers and streams which rise unexpectedly after rain, in the wet season.
