Precipice National Park, Protected natural area in Banana Shire, Australia

The Precipice National Park spans 105 square kilometers of terrain with vertical cliffs, iron rungs, and extensive hiking trails through sandstone formations.

The Queensland Department of National Parks, Sport and Racing established this conservation area on August 7, 1998 to protect the local ecosystems.

The park stands within Banana Shire, named after a settlement that grew from Banana's Gully, which commemorated a respected lead bullock.

Visitors can explore multiple hiking paths featuring wooden bridges, granite stairs, and narrow ledges that require physical preparation and careful navigation.

The park's trail system rises over 1,000 feet in less than one mile, incorporating natural rock formations with installed metal supports for climbers.
