EXPLORE BOODJAMULLA

“ We the Waanyi People, Traditional Owners of Boodjamulla National Park, welcome you to our country and ask that you respect our special place. When we come into the gorge we feel at home; we feel so safe; we’re visiting our old people.”
- Waanyi Elders
“Queensland Parks and Wildlife Service is pleased to continue its relationship working alongside the Waanyi People to jointly manage this national park in a way that will protect the key natural and cultural features of Boodjamulla, whilst also providing visitors with a memorable experience."
- Former Minister for Environment and Science, Leanne Linard MP
"Riversleigh is one of the great wonders of the palaeontological world. What other site has produced such an extraordinary assemblage of mammals, birds, reptiles and many other creatures hitherto completely new to science. Not just one or two species but literally hundreds of them. And not just new but undreamed of."
- Sir David Attenborough

Experience

The Waanyi People warmly welcome you to Boodjamulla National Park, which we know as our spiritual and sacred Bujimala (Rainbow Serpent) country.

We invite you to explore its breathtaking firey-red sandstone gorges and emerald-green healing water (Boulgi waters).

Discover the cultural walking tracks and ancient land features that preserve many mesmerising relics from the past which will transport you back more than 30,000 years.

Whether you explore by foot, or by canoe paddling through the gorge, Boodjamulla National Park promises to captivate you.
