Boodjamulla National Park (formerly Lawn Hill National Park) is in Outback Queensland, in the westernmost part of the state. It is home to the Riversleigh fossil site, which is a UNESCO World Heritage Site along with Naracoorte Caves National Park in South Australia.

A UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the best-known fossil sites in Australia. Fossils of different kinds of mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians and fish have been found at the site - most notably 35 bat species. Unlike most fossils in the world, the ones found here have retained their original structure, as they are embedded in soft uncompressed limestone.
One of the most unusual looking gorges in the park. Apart from Riversleigh, this gorge is one of the most important sights in Boodjamulla National Park. There's a camping area nearby for those wanting an early bird view.
Camp next to Lawn Hill Creek. Do note about the crocs though.
Getting into Boodjamulla National Park is much harder than most other places despite being a UNESCO World Heritage Site, mainly due to its sheer remoteness.
