Lamington National Park is a national park in the Scenic Rim of South East Queensland and is part of the Gondwana Rainforests of Australia UNESCO World Heritage Site, the largest extent of subtropical rainforests in the world. The park is home to over five hundred waterfalls, yet it's only an hour and a half from Brisbane and even closer to the Gold Coast. Known for its natural environment, rainforests, birdlife, ancient trees, waterfalls, 150 km of walking tracks and mountain views, it is sometimes colloquially referred to as "Queensland’s National Park". The park was one of the Q150 icons, in marking 150 years from being separate from New South Wales.
