A panorama of sculpted sandstone greets visitors to Isla Gorge National Park. Set among bottle trees, dry rainforests and rare plants, the striking rock forms and sandstone outcrops seem to change colour with the movement of the sun. Spring wildflowers, rare rock-wallabies and a hand-paved road built in 1864 attract travellers to this park. Camp overnight or have a sunset picnic overlooking the gorge. (Beware loose cliff edges when walking around the camping and picnic areas). See wedge-tailed eagles and peregrine falcons riding breezes and honeyeaters feeding on wattles. Have fun finding familiar shapes in strange rock formations. Drive to Flagstaff Hill to see the remains of the historic road.
