Description

Huge granite boulders tower above open forests in the spectacular and popular Girraween National Park outside Stanthorpe. The wildflowers in spring are absolutely incredible! From the Castle Rock and Bald Rock Creek campgrounds, explore up to 30 kilometres of tracks. Climb The Pyramid for great views of Balancing Rock.

Watch for blue wrens and rare turquoise parrots. Listen to superb lyrebirds as they imitate the calls of other birds. Look for bearded dragons and jacky lizards on the granite rocks, soaking up the sun. Go spotlighting at night to see ringtail possums high in the eucalypt trees. If you are lucky, you may see a wombat. From July, flower-lovers can admire the golden wattle and purple bush peas.
