Crows Nest National Park, Nature reserve in Toowoomba Regional, Australia.
Crows Nest National Park is a nature reserve featuring granite outcrops and eucalyptus forests shaped by Crows Nest Creek. The creek flows through steep gorges and culminates in a 20-meter waterfall.
Queensland authorities established this protected area in 2006 to preserve the natural landscapes of the Great Dividing Range. The designation safeguarded this highland region from further development.
Visitors encounter native wildlife including brush-tailed rock-wallabies and bird species at vantage points throughout the park, making it a place where people connect with Australia's natural inhabitants. These animals are central to how locals and travelers experience and value this protected land.
The day-use area provides parking, picnic tables, gas barbecues, and water stations for visitors. Multiple walking tracks of varying difficulty let everyone explore at their own pace.
The Valley of Diamonds, viewable from Koonin Lookout, is a deep gorge where water cascades over granite cliffs into natural rock pools. This formation demonstrates the water's powerful sculpting of the highland landscape.
