Cania Gorge National Park

Cania Gorge National Park features sandstone cliffs rising 70 meters high along Three Moon Creek, with diverse woodland areas and extensive cave systems.

The protected region received its national park status in 1994, following land donations from the Francis family of Cania Station between 1977 and 1989.

Archaeological evidence reveals Indigenous settlements spanning 19,000 years, with nine documented art sites containing freehand paintings of handprints and animal figures.

The park provides multiple walking trails extending from 300 meters to 22 kilometers, equipped with picnic shelters, gas barbecues, and interpretive displays.

Peregrine falcons nest in the high sandstone walls while whiptail wallabies and black-striped wallabies inhabit the lower sections of the gorge system.
