Kroombit Tops National Park, Nature reserve in Banana Shire, Australia.
Kroombit Tops National Park is a nature reserve featuring sandstone escarpments, gorges, and waterfalls in Queensland. The park contains subtropical rainforests and woodlands with various habitats spread across a high plateau.
The Queensland government designated this site as a national park in 2006 to protect its natural habitats and geological features. The region's past geological activity shaped the high plateau and left behind a large erosion basin.
The land holds sacred meaning for Aboriginal communities, with their connection to the area visible at sites scattered throughout the park. These places tell stories that have been passed down through countless generations.
Visitors need a four-wheel-drive vehicle to access the main loop road through the park. Those planning to camp should arrange permits in advance and check conditions before arrival.
The plateau holds a large erosion basin created by past volcanic activity, which stands out as a distinctive geographical feature today. This formation reveals the powerful geological forces that shaped the landscape over long periods.
