Goneaway National Park

Goneaway National Park spans 248 square kilometers of arid terrain with residual sandstone ridges between the towns of Winton and Jundah in Central West Queensland.

The Queensland government established this protected area in 1994, designating it as an IUCN category II national park to preserve the natural environment.

The park represents an important part of Queensland's conservation network, protecting 17 plant species and 55 animal species in their natural habitat.

Visitors need to bring their own supplies as the park offers no facilities, walking tracks, or camping areas, and access requires careful navigation.

The remote wilderness contains diverse ecosystems including open woodlands, grasslands, and scrub areas, supporting wildlife adapted to semi-arid conditions.
