Lockerbie Scrub, Nature preserve at Cape York Peninsula, Australia.

The Lockerbie Scrub spans 230 square kilometers of closed forest and woodland, surrounded by tropical savanna at the northern tip of Queensland.

The conservation area received recognition in 1976 through a national park proposal, followed by nomination to the Register of National Estate in 1980.

The Gudang people maintain strong connections to this land, with 135 plant species documented for their traditional and contemporary indigenous uses.

Visitors can access walking trails throughout the preserve while maintaining distance from protected species and respecting designated observation points.

The northernmost rainforest on mainland Australia contains 1,097 plant species, including forty rare specimens protected under state legislation.
