Trying to find out some info on a
park near the new
Paradise Dam on the
Burnett River some where near Biggenden.
Any info most appreciated.

I should be able to get some info tomorrow at work, as a mate stayed there recently on a M-bike trip.
Cheers Kev

I think the
park you are referring to is at Mingo Crossing.
Can't find much info about it either.

That place rings a bell Neil, I believe there is a turn off just south of Gayndah.

We have camped at
Paradise Dam, in the
boat ramp area that will eventually be flooded. There were No
Camping signs, but heaps of people, especially with boats, were
camping over the weekend. I think until they build a proper
camping area, they are turning a blind eye to it.
We also checked out Mingo Crossing, and there was one fellow camped there.
There are
toilets available at the Dam. Not sure at Mingo Crossing.
This was about 5 months ago, so not sure what changes, if any, have been made.
I am not aware of any other
camping near here.

Bruce,
I believe Mingo Crossing is on the Mt Perry - Gayndah Road where the road crosses the
Burnett River.
From what I have been told there has been a new recreation/
camping area established there with showers/
toilets and there are several powered sites there.
Regards,
Neil
