Blackdown Tableland National Park is temporarily closed to allow roadworks aimed at improving visitor safety and access to be completed.
Queensland Parks and Wildlife Service (QPWS) is upgrading and resealing the main access road, as well as undertaking grading and re-gravelling works between Yaddamen Dhina (Horseshoe lookout) and the Munall camping area, including upgrades and repairs to steep, sealed sections of the road.
These improvements will enhance the overall visitor experience.
For safety reasons, the narrow and winding access road cannot accommodate vehicles and visitors during the roadworks.
Blackdown Tableland National Park is scheduled to reopen on 1 August 2025, following completion of roadworks.
QPWS will provide an update when the protected area is safe to reopen.
Visitors are being urged to check Park Alerts for up-to-date information on protected area closures.
The public is urged to obey all signs and directions from Rangers to ensure their safety.
