Travel Planner
WHERE CULGOA Floodplain National Park is situated 800km west of Brisbane on the Nsw/queensland border. It’s a very remote park that requires planning and a 4WD to visit the area. While not a huge park it does hold special meaning to the local Aboriginal people and has numerous relics from pastoral and grazing days. Hebel, 140km east of the park, has an interesting past and is well worth a visit.
CAMPING AND FACILITIES THIS is a very remote park with no facilities. There are two bush camping areas: Redbank Hut, which is 12km from the ranger’s station, and Byra Lagoon area, which is only 500 metres from the station. Being remote you need to be self-sufficient. The Royal Flying Doctor Service operates in this area.
THINGS TO DO CULGOA Floodplain National Park features walking trails (the park ranger can provide a map), remote camping, photo-ops, bird and animal watching, and plenty of local history.
