Review & FAQ:

Located in the Southern Brigalow Belt bioregion in Central Queensland’s Maranoa Region, the Carnarvon Gorge National Park is centered around the magnificent Carnarvon Gorge, which runs for 19 miles through the rugged mountain ranges of Queensland’s central highlands. The gorge has been sculpted by the Carnarvon Creek over thousands of years and boasts a warren of 650-foot tall sandstone cliffs, caves filled with ancient indigenous art, tranquil pools, and remnant rainforest. Top attractions in the park include the Mickey Creek Gorge, Baloon Cave, and Rock Pool, which can be reached by short hiking trails.
