Queen Mary Falls

Queen Mary Falls is a waterfall located in the Darling Downs region, dropping over a basalt cliff in a single cascade. The falls sit within Main Range National Park in Queensland, surrounded by natural rock formations.

The falls formed through water erosion, gradually cutting through layers of basalt and trachyte rock over geological time. This natural process shaped the deep gorges and cliff formations visible today.

The falls serve as a gathering spot for locals seeking outdoor recreation and peaceful moments in nature. Families and groups regularly visit to enjoy picnics and connect with the natural landscape on weekends.

A sealed road leads to a parking area equipped with toilets, picnic tables, and barbecue facilities for visitors. The accessible layout makes it straightforward to plan and enjoy a day at the falls.

Spring Creek continues to reshape the falls, as shown by comparing old photographs from the 1800s with the landscape today. Large boulders at the base are now visible but were absent in those historical images, revealing how the water constantly moves rock.
