Mount Colosseum National Park

Mount Colosseum National Park extends across 830 hectares of land, featuring a volcanic dome that rises 229 meters above the surrounding landscape in Central Queensland.

The national park was established in 1977 with an initial protected area and received a substantial expansion in 1994 to enhance conservation efforts.

The park represents a significant ecological site where visitors contribute to scientific research by recording bird sightings and documenting local wildlife species.

Located 370 kilometers northwest of Brisbane and 6 kilometers south of Miriam Vale, the park remains undeveloped without designated walking tracks or camping facilities.

The volcanic dome's surface contains scattered hoop pines, while its base harbors a dry rainforest populated with ironbark and bloodwood tree species.
