Information

From Broadbeach, drive 40km to Canungra via Nerang. From the north, take Pacific Motorway exit 34 to Beenleigh, route 92 to Tamborine, and route 90 to Canungra. The 36km winding and often narrow bitumen road from Canungra requires care and takes at least 50 minutes. This road is unsuitable for caravans. Declared in 1915, Lamington National Park covers 20,590ha and boasts extensive walking tracks along the McPherson Range, which allow visitors to explore the area’s forests, creeks and waterfalls. Dramatic lookouts afford views over the Gold Coast, south-east Queensland and northern New South Wales. Lamington is part of the Gondwana Rainforests of Australia World Heritage Area, which includes the most extensive areas of subtropical rainforest in the world, most of the world’s warm temperate rainforest and nearly all of the Antarctic beech (Nothofagus moorei) cool temperate rainforest. The national park campground is located at Green Mountains section, 200m from the QPWS information centre. Camping permits must be booked in advanced for all weekends and school holidays. At other times campers may pre-book or self-register on-site. Fees apply.
Drinking water, toilets and hot showers are provided. There is also an industrial bin for rubbish. Bring a fuel stove as no open fires are allowed in the park. There are no powered sites and caravans are not accommodated.
