Narkoola National Park, National park in Paroo Shire, Australia
Narkoola National Park is a protected reserve in the Mulga Lands region of South West Queensland featuring open woodland and shrubland vegetation. The area preserves native plant and animal communities that are characteristic of this inland landscape.
The park received official designation in 2010 to protect the ecosystems of the region. This protected status followed efforts to conserve the native habitats found throughout South West Queensland.
The Queensland Parks and Wildlife Service maintains this protected area as part of broader conservation efforts in South West Queensland.
The park is accessible via the nearby town of Bollon, which serves as a starting point for visits. Visitors should check on road conditions and access routes before arriving, as the area is quite remote.
Parts of the park are designated as recovery zones where plant populations and wildlife can regenerate. These zones show how protection measures actively contribute to the healing of ecosystems that were affected by past human impact.
