Description

Bunya Mountains National Park, Queensland's second-oldest national park, protects the world's largest remaining bunya pine rainforest. Until the late 1800s, Aboriginal people travelled here from far distant places for bunya nut festivals. Today visitors camp, walk and relax in the cool air and enjoy mountain scenery and colourful birdlife. This park is a walkers paradise, with 35 kilometres of tracks (from 500 metres to 10 kilometres), many leading to attractive natural grassland balds; with great views. Serious walkers find remote lookouts and waterfalls. Birdwatchers seek catbirds, rare sooty owls and quails. Watch red-necked wallabies graze at numerous picnic areas.
