Hell Hole Gorge National Park - QLD

Hell Hole Gorge National Park has no visitor facilities, but camping is permitted near Powell Creek, 7km from the park entrance. Access via Adavale & 'Milo' Station. 4WD accessible only. Not suitable for caravans.

The area is well-suited to low-impact nature-based activities such as hiking, birdwatching. Hell Hole Gorge National Park has only one marked walking track, but you can also explore around waterholes and into rugged gorges, or stroll along the top of the plateau high above the creek. Watch for birds, look for wildflowers or spot wildlife resting in the cool gorge below. The terrain in the park is deceptively rugged

Hell Hole Waterhole, with its steep rocky banks and cascades that run after heavy rainfall, is the largest of the park’s rock pools and the park’s main attraction. More washpools and cascades can be found along the length of Powell Creek and in smaller Spencer Creek. Rugged gullies invite exploratory walks in search of unusual plants or glimpses of animal life.

Visitors need to be mindful of their safety in this remote park. Take a compass or GPS when exploring as the terrain is deceptively rugged.

Campers should plan their visit and obtain an e-permit well in advance. Self-registration is not available. There is no alternative accommodation within close proximity to the park.
