Beeron National Park
Beeron National Park is a national park at Beeron in the Wide Bay–Burnett region of Queensland, Australia. The 7050-hectare park preserves plant species of high conservation value. It was formerly known as Beeron Holding or 'Rocky' paddock.[1] It is part of both the North Burnett Region and South Burnett Region local government areas and the Brigalow Belt bioregion.[2] The park lies within the catchment area of the Boyne River, a tributary of the Burnett River. Beeron National Park is home to six endemic species and three plants with conservation significance.[1] In 2010, an extra 7,000 hectares significantly extended the size of the park.[3] The addition was made possible by the cooperation of two mining companies who relinquished their mining permits.[4] South and west of the national park is Allies Creek State Forest. It is undeveloped with no visitor facilities. See alsoReferences
