Queen Mary Falls circuit, Main Range National Park

Queen Mary Falls section, Killarney QLD 4373
Take a leisurely stroll through changing forests to the top, and then the base, of spectacular Queen Mary Falls. 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 40 metres over the falls to the valley floor. Marvel at the rainbows created by the waterfall’s sheer mist, and watch as the creek continues its twisting journey along the valley, to join the Condamine River’s upper reaches. Continue along the track to the valley floor and cool off in the waterfall’s misty spray—perfect on a hot summer's day. Park Rangers suggest walking the circuit in a clockwise direction as it is easier on the legs! Take care on the causeway as the surface can become slippery when wet. Do not attempt to cross when in flood or if water covers the causeway. This park is part of the Gondwana Rainforests of Australia World Heritage Area, famed for its ongoing geological processes, evolutionary history, and diversity (especially of rare, threatened and endemic species)....

Falls Drive

46547 - Killarney QLD 4373
The Falls Drive is one of the region’s most popular drives. Leave the small township of Killarney and travel along a winding and lush green road to Spring Creek Road, where the best part of the journey really begins. The road climbs up the mountain, through bushland and rainforest, passing great spots to discover different waterfalls, enjoy a picnic and take in the beauty of the expansive valley below. At the top of the hill is iconic Queen Mary Falls and offers great walking and exploring, plenty of native wildlife, and birdlife aplenty. There is a safe walking track to do the circuit, or you can just view the falls from the top lookout. Queen Mary Falls flows into the nearby Condamine River where it begins at The Head and flows on to the Murray-Darling - Australia’s longest river system. Carr’s Lookout offers breathtaking views over the Head Valley to Mt Superbus, the Scenic Rim and Tambourine Mountain. Information identifies the mountains and tells the story of a plane crash in 1955 on Mt Superbus. This tourist route can form part of a wonderful circle drive taking in Cunningham’s Gap, Warwick, Killarney and Boonah. 4×4 vehicles may choose to return to Warwick via Cambanoora Gorge via the 14 River Crossings of the Condamine River (weather and water levels permitting). Other travellers will enjoy a leisurely drive down the winding road of Spring Creek Road which meets up with the Scenic Rim township of Boonah. Please note, the section of the road between Carrs Lookout and Cambanoora Gorge is quite steep and narrow so is not suitable for large vehicles or caravans....
