Tregole National Park, Nature reserve in Murweh Shire, Australia
Tregole National Park is a nature reserve in South West Queensland that displays dry landscape with various plant communities. The area combines two different ecological zones where trees and shrubs grow alongside each other.
Tregole was gazetted as a national park in 1975, before which the land was a grazing property. The park lies at the southern end of the Chesterton Range, near the larger Chesterton Range National Park, and protects a sample of semi-arid ecosystem where the brigalow and mulga biospheres meet.
Locals value this space as a place where rare trees grow in their natural setting. People come to experience the range of life in dry conditions and observe plants adapted to this harsh climate.
Visitors can reach a day-use area about 10 kilometers south of Morven on Morven-Bollon Road. The site has a walking trail that is easy to explore on foot.
The site holds a significant population of Ooline trees, a vulnerable species that survives in this hot climate. These trees are uncommon to see and make this location important for observing them.
