Yuwi Paree Toolkoon National Park

Yuwi Paree Toolkoon National Park is a nature reserve on the Queensland coast with diverse forests and woodland ecosystems spread across the protected area. The landscape combines different forest types and open spaces that create varied habitats for wildlife.

The protected area was established in November 2010 to safeguard the coastal ecosystems and animal populations found here. This designation marked an important step in preserving the region's natural environments.

Indigenous communities maintain deep ties to this land, having lived and cared for it over countless generations. Their presence and connection to the region remain central to how the place is understood today.

The park can be explored via multiple walking trails during daylight hours, each passing through different landscape zones. Visitors find good opportunities for wildlife watching and nature photography throughout the area.

The terrain has a gentle elevation that creates distinct microclimates within a compact area, allowing different plant communities to thrive nearby. Visitors can experience multiple ecosystem types on relatively short walks through the park.
