Description

The Queen Mary Falls picnic area is in the Queen Mary Falls section of Main Range National Park, about 120km south-west of Brisbane. The picnic area is 6km from the eastern park entrance, and 3km from the western park entrance. (The approach from Boonah is very steep and should be travelled with care. It is unsuitable for caravans.) The toilets and picnic tables are wheelchair accessible. Take a leisurely stroll through changing forests to the top, and then the base, of spectacular Queen Mary Falls. Distance: 2km. From the Queen Mary Falls picnic area, head along a fragrant eucalypt-topped ridgeline to the lush, rainforested gorge. At the lookout, watch Spring Creek plunge 40m over the falls to the valley floor. Marvel at the rainbows created by the waterfalls sheer mist, and watch as the creek continues its twisting journey along the valley, to join the Condamine Rivers upper reaches. Continue along the track to the valley floor and cool off in the waterfalls misty sprayperfect on a hot summer's day. Park Rangers recommend walking the circuit in a clockwise direction as it is easier on the legs! Pets are not permitted.
