Central Queensland Sandstone Belt parks visitor guide (PDF, 4.0M)

Beilba preserves an important corridor along the Dawson River
to the north and Baffle Creek to the south, protecting an intact
example of escarpment country.
Access
From Injune, travel north 26 km on the
Carnarvon Developmental Road. Turn right
onto Fairview Road and then left onto
Beilba Road to the park (30 km gravel
road). The road is generally suitable for all
vehicle types except during wet weather.
Loose gravel surfaces and unfenced
roads, however, require visitors to
drive carefully.
Things to do
A camping area is provided adjacent to
the old cattle station home. There are
no facilities at this park. As the park is
relatively remote, be sure that you are
self-sufficient and have adequate
supplies of water, food and fuel in case
of emergency.

Gas companies drill for coal methane
gas in the area. Avoid drilling sites and
watch out for exploration machinery on
roads in this area.
The park conserves nearly 4000 ha
of brigalow, lancewood and
softwood scrub (pictured).
Wildflowers, including grevilleas,
flannel flowers, acacias, and pea
flowers, provide splashes of colour
throughout the park in late winter
and spring. Squatter pigeons occur
in open woodlands and wallaroos
are commonly seen on basalt hills
in the middle of the park.
Prior to its gazettal as a national
park in 1993, Beilba was run as
a cattle station. Remnants of this
past grazing activity still exist.
