Boodjamulla (Lawn Hill) National Park
Lawn Hill, Gulf Savannah

Disabled:
The paths around the camping area, some camp sites and the amenities block are accessible to wheelchairs.

How To Get There:
By road, Boodjamulla (Lawn Hill) National Park is 207 kilometres from the Barkly Highway (via Riversleigh). Only the first 57 kilometres of this route is sealed. Access is unsuitable for conventional vehicles and caravans. The park can also be reached via Gregory Downs. The entire 100 kilometres from Gregory Downs is unsealed. Although a four-wheel-drive vehicle is recommended, this is the only route suitable for conventional vehicles and off-road caravans. Access from the north is via various unsealed routes through Hell's Gate or Doomadgee.
The unsealed sections of road can be rough, with patches of bulldust and corrugations. Sections of the roads can also be impassable for extended periods after rain. Always check road conditions before travelling to the area. Unsealed roads in the area make access unpredictable. It is strongly recommended that visitors take precautionary steps by being well-equipped and self-sufficient, as there is limited communication and no mobile phone reception. During the wet season (October-April) it is recommended that visitors travel by four-wheel-drive and carry an over-supply of food in case of becoming stranded. The wet season can bring dramatic rises in creek levels within a short time and with little warning, cutting off road access. Visitors may find themselves stranded for a number of days.
There is an airstrip at Adels Grove, 10 kilometres from Lawn Hill Gorge. Contact Adels Grove for details and permission to land.

Inclusions:
Camping fees apply.
