Camooweal Caves National Park, Cave system and grassland national park in Barkly Tableland, Australia
The national park extends over 138 square kilometers of eucalypt woodland, spinifex vegetation, wattle trees, and Mitchell grass plains at 242 meters elevation.
The establishment of Camooweal Caves National Park in 1988 led to protection measures for the network of underground caves formed over 500 million years.
The Indjalandji-Dhidhanu People maintained trade routes through the park area and along the Georgina River for thousands of years before European arrival.
Visitors can access two sinkholes and walking tracks, including a 70-meter return path to Little Nowranie Cave and 220-meter track to Great Nowranie Cave.
The cave network contains vertical shafts reaching depths of 75 meters, with Great Nowranie Cave featuring a 290-meter-long and 70-meter-deep sinkhole.
