Information

The extensive old-growth forest and World Heritage-listed rainforest, including the rare Richmond Range spotted gum, provide habitats for a huge range of native fauna.
The Cambridge Plateau Scenic Drive runs the length of the southern half of the park, providing ready access to rainforest scenery (unsealed but suitable for 2WD in dry weather; caravans not advisable). Car-based camping is available at Peacock Creek. From the Cambridge Plateau picnic area, take a short rainforest stroll or a two-hour loop walk along Culmaran Valley (medium grade - steep steps at beginning).
Access 45 km west of Casino via the Bruxner Highway, then the Cambridge Plateau Forest Drive. Access to Bonalbo via Peacock Creek Road out of the park and access to Kyogle from Cambridge Plateau Scenic Drive via Sextonville Road is strictly 4WD dry weather only. The only safe 2WD entry and exit point from the park is via Mallanganeeoffthe Bruxner Highway 45 km west of Casino. Roads are closed during wet weather.
