Departs - 7:00am
Hidden in the rugged ranges of Queensland's Central Highlands, Carnarvon Gorge features towering sandstone cliffs, vibrant coloured side gorges, diverse flora, fascinating fauna and Aboriginal rock art.
Carnarvon Gorge is an oasis in the semi-arid heart of Central Queensland. A wealth of cultural and natural heritage lies within this special place. This gorge is home to a range of significant plant and animal species many of them relics of cooler, wetter times.
Remnant rainforest flourishes in the sheltered side-gorges while endemic Carnarvon fan palms Livistona Nitida, ancient cycads, ferns, flowering scrubs and gum trees line the main gorge. Grassy open forest grows on the cliff tops. The park's creeks attract a wide variety of animals including more than 173 species of birds.
Rock art on sandstone overhangs is a fragile reminder of Aboriginal people's long and continuing connection with the gorge. Ochre stencils, rock engravings and freehand paintings include some of the finest Aboriginal rock imagery in Australia.
