Freshwater National Park

Freshwater National Park is a nature reserve in Queensland comprising wetlands, woodlands, and waterways that create interconnected habitats. These different environments support a range of animal populations throughout the protected area.

The park was established on 31 July 2009 by the Queensland Department of Environment and Science to protect local ecosystems. This creation marked an important step in preserving natural habitats throughout the region.

The site functions as a place where visitors can learn about local ecosystems and environmental protection through interpretive displays. These signs explain how different habitats work together to support the region's wildlife.

The park features marked walking trails and designated viewing areas for observing wildlife, plus a fenced area for dogs to roam freely. Set aside time to explore different sections at a comfortable pace.

The site serves as a crucial stopping point for migratory birds traveling between continents. These bird species rely on the park's wetlands as a vital rest area during their long journeys.
