Lochern National Park

This is Queensland’s channel country, where flooding rains and devastating droughts are part of western Queensland life. All four species of Mitchell grass grow here. The Thompson River, its banks fringed with huge old coolibahs, stretches 20 kilometres through the park. A newly described subspecies of turtle, Emmott’s short-necked turtle, lives in the park’s waterholes. Remnants of European history reflect the innovative nature of early farming life.

Take binoculars to see vulnerable Major Mitchell cockatoos, red-tailed black-cockatoos and brolgas. Observe wildlife around waterholes and along the 40 kilometre Habitat drive. Go fishing (size and bag limits apply). Pitch your tent beside a billabong. See the shepherds’ yards.
