Gibraltar Range National Park, Nature reserve in New South Wales, Australia
Gibraltar Range National Park is a nature reserve in New South Wales featuring granite outcrops, rainforest sections, and woodland areas across mountainous terrain. The landscape includes multiple valleys and ridges with varied elevation and vegetation zones throughout.
The area forms part of ancient Gondwana Rainforests dating to when Australia separated from the supercontinent. This geological history shaped the plant and animal communities found within its boundaries today.
The park is home to more than 140 bird species, including the rufous scrub-bird, which draw visitors interested in wildlife observation. These birds thrive in the varied habitats found throughout the property.
The park is accessed via Gwydir Highway with multiple entry points and access roads. Visitors can find picnic areas, rest spots, and walking trails ranging from easy to moderate difficulty throughout the grounds.
The Demon Fault is a geological formation that divides the park into different rock zones. This natural boundary influences how plant communities distribute themselves across the landscape.
