Carnarvon National Park

Carnarvon National Park spans across 26,304 hectares of land, featuring sandstone cliffs, deep gorges, and diverse ecosystems with rainforests and waterfalls.

The national park, established in 1932, expanded over time to include seven distinct sections: Goodlife, Salvator Rosa, Ka Ka Mundi, Buckland Tableland, Mount Moffatt, Carnarvon Gorge, and Moolayember.

The rock art sites within the park display the heritage of Bidjara, Karingbal, and Kara Kara peoples, who inhabited this land for over 19,500 years.

The park maintains numerous walking trails, camping areas, and visitor facilities, with the main entrance accessible via the Carnarvon Highway from Rolleston or Injune.

The park contains forty regional ecosystems and houses rare species like the Carnarvon Fan Palm, along with 210 bird species and 90 reptile species.
