Mount Walsh National Park

Mount Walsh National Park encompasses steep granite peaks, dense forests, and exposed rock formations across 52 square kilometers of protected Queensland landscape.

The establishment of Mount Walsh National Park in 1947 marked a commitment to preserve the natural formations that emerged from volcanic activities 215 million years ago.

The park holds deep connections to Indigenous communities in Queensland, with the Department of Environment and Science maintaining educational programs about local heritage.

The park offers multiple walking trails with varying difficulties, including a 300-meter track through eucalyptus forests and a demanding summit route requiring 2.5 hours.

The northern Bluff area reaches 703 meters above sea level, forming three distinct peaks where visitors might spot peregrine falcons and grey goshawks.
