‘It’s bloomin marvellous’, as Australian gardening guru, Peter Cundal, would say. You don’t need to fly to the UK for the Chelsea Flower Show or trek to Melbourne for the International Flower Show because, when it comes to wildflowers and rock landscaping, Girraween National Park outclasses them all.

If an escape from the family school day routine appeals (like, really appeals!) but the idea of a family road trip and camping holiday conjures up images of the Griswolds on vacation, leaving you in a cold sweat, we have a solution! Photo credit: Maxime Coquard © Queensland Government

Starting from the Bald Rock Creek day-use area this round trip offers some superb birdwatching and wildlife-spotting opportunities. In spring enjoy colourful wildflower displays and during the warmer months, cool off in the permanent waterhole. Stop to take a break at the lookout, gaze at the reflections on the water's surface, and soak up the impressive views across to The Pyramid.

Watch cormorants and wood ducks resting on boulders in the creek and look in the understorey for superb fairy-wrens, thornbills and bowerbirds. If are lucky, you’ll catch glimpse of Girraween's unique Bell's turtle basking beside the creek.
