 Description of Lawn Hill National Park

Lawn Hill National Park (Boodjamulla) is situated approximately 400km north-west of Mount Isa and 220km south-west of Burketown. This million-year-old gorge is a true oasis surrounded by the barren rocky features usually associated with this deserted area of Queensland and is and operated by National Parks rangers. This 282 000 hectare park stretches from the gorge, west to the Northern Territory border, south to the world heritage listed Riversleigh fossil fields and north to Bowthorn Station.
