Gibraltar Range National Park

by iandsmith - last update: Sep 23, 2007

A varied wilderness

The iconic Anvil Rock
With 17,300 hectares and over 100 kilometres of walking tracks there's more than enough here to keep any avid bushwalker occupied.
However, if you add in the adjacent Washpool National Park at 27,700 hectares well, you'll probably be coming back for more.
This diverse park which ranges from sclerophyll forest to rainforest, sometimes in the space of 100 metres, is varied and interesting. Whether you like the sound of a trickling stream, the rustle of wind in the treetops or the crashing of a great waterfall, you will find solace here.

The wet side

There are several streams and rivers in the park; Boundary Creek and Dandahra Creek are a couple of the best known but, if you're into exploring, there are many scenic streamlets and creeks thoughout the park, Duffers Falls is one area where you'll come across several cascades in one location.

 From the high quality of both your geological and flora photos, I'd say your time exploring Gibralter Range was very well spent! Your opening view of Anvil Rock reminded me of the Sphinx's head, with even a hint of front legs in the foreground!
