Park overview

Discover Beeron National Park

Beeron National Park protects open forests and rocky outcrops on the southern fringe of the North Burnett, offering a low-key bush escape for self-sufficient travellers.

Sparse signage and minimal facilities keep the park feeling wild—watch for wallabies, gliders, and prolific birdlife along ridgelines linking Mundubbera and Eidsvold.

Park highlights

  • Cruise quiet 4WD trails across sandstone ridges for panoramas over the Burnett River catchment.
  • Photograph spring wildflowers, grass trees, and granite pavements glowing after winter rain.
  • Pair your remote bushland adventure with heritage villages and riverfront parks in nearby towns.
