Goon Goon Dina (Culture Circuit)

Rising abruptly above the surrounding dry plains, Blackdown Tableland protects spectacular sandstone scenery at the north-eastern edge of the Central Queensland sandstone belt. This is the traditional home of the Ghungalu people, who have visited this place for thousands of years and left behind rock art, vivid reminders of their special culture.

The park supports diverse plant communities including heathlands, dry eucalypt forests and moist pockets of ferns, mosses and orchids. Being elevated, the tableland is often cooler and moister than nearby plains. Its isolation means plants and animals that are found nowhere else thrive here.

Interpretive signs along this self-guiding walk offer insight into the park's history. It begins at Munall campground with an easy walk past old cattle yard ruins and then follows Mimosa Creek upstream to a Ghungalu art site. Plants used by Ghungalu people for food and shelter can be seen along the way.
