Would you like to..
Bald Rock National Park is located 45 minutes south of Stanthorpe on the Mount Lindesay Highway. Bald Rock is the main feature of the National Park. This dome is 750 metres long and 500 metres wide. It rises 200 metres above the surrounding bushland, and is the largest exposed granite type rock in Australia.
There are canyons and stone arches on the three hour return walk to the summit, which offers panoramic views. Other walks (four kilometres to 14 kilometres return) take in the surrounding granite country. The track to the foot of Bald Rock is wheelchair accessible with assistance.
Boonoo Boonoo National Park is a few minutes further south of Bald Rock National Park. In summer, this is the ideal place to be, as the main feature of this National Park is the Boonoo Boonoo River and its waterfalls. Picnic and bush camping facilities are available at both parks.
