Hann Tableland National Park, Nature reserve in Mareeba Shire, Australia.
Hann Tableland National Park is a protected mountain forest in Far North Queensland, covering a high-altitude woodland region. The park encompasses diverse forest types and habitats across the elevated tableland terrain.
The park was established in 1989 and significantly expanded in 2004 to better preserve the native forests of the tableland. This enlargement created broader protection for the woodland ecosystem.
The tableland holds deep connections to the Muluridji people, who practiced traditional hunting and gathering across these lands. This bond with the environment remains central to the identity of the region today.
The park is accessible via the Bicentennial National Trail, which offers several entry points for walkers. Visitors should prepare for mountain walking and bring appropriate footwear and water supplies.
The park is home to three rare animal species: the northern greater glider, the northern quoll, and the buff-breasted button-quail. These creatures depend on the tableland's specific conditions and are found nowhere else in the region.
