Bunya Mountains National Park

We went hiking on April 10 in the Bunya Mountains National Park at Queensland during Easter holiday. It was raining. There were many people and no space for camping even we tried to reserve it 1 month ago.

We took the trails to see waterfall. We took Eastern Rainforest Circuits to see rock pools, Festoon Falls, Tim Shea Falls, Big Falls Lookout, and Barker Creek Lookout. The amount of water for these 3 Falls were less or about the amount of bathroom shower. We missed the Great Falls at MD/VA border in USA. Gee! We are so disappointed.

There are many Hoop and Bunya pines in this national park. Bunya pine is elephant-feet like. There is information about Bunya cone drop zone by Bunya Mt. NP website: Avoid lingering under bunya pines between December and March. That is when the soccer-ball sized cones weighing up to 10kg fall from the tops of towering trees.
