Discover the most magical spots to pitch your tent or park your rig on your next Sarabah National Park adventure.
Escape the crowds to explore these remote wetlands by canoe.
A pocket of subtropical rainforest along the banks of Canungra Creek, Sarabah National Park is Queensland’s tiniest national park. The only way to reach Sarabah is by water, and there are no walking trails or roads into the park. Intrepid travelers can paddle along the creek by canoe or kayak, stopping to spot wildlife in the park, before continuing to the riverside vineyards further downstream. Look out for koalas and platypus, both common sightings. There’s no camping at Sarabah National Park, but campers have options along the river, as well as in nearby Lamington National Park.
Mild temperatures mean that Sarabah National Park is accessible year-round, but the most popular time for canoeing is during the summer (December through March). Plan an early morning or early evening visit to maximize wildlife-spotting opportunities—animals are most active at these times, especially along the riverbanks.
