Burleigh Head National Park

Burleigh Head National Park is a small coastal national park occupying a rocky headland at Burleigh Heads on the Gold Coast, Queensland. Covering about 27 hectares between Burleigh Beach and Tallebudgera Creek, it protects remnant rainforest, pandanus groves and basalt columns. Notable for its ocean views, walking tracks and Aboriginal cultural significance to the Kombumerri people, it offers lookouts, wildlife viewing and access to adjacent surf beaches within an urban setting.

Visitors can expect a compact headland reserve with well-marked walking tracks through littoral rainforest and along the coastline. The park features the Oceanview Track along the foreshore and the Rainforest Circuit inland, leading to Tumgun Lookout with panoramic views over the Gold Coast, Burleigh Beach, Tallebudgera Creek and the Pacific Ocean. Surroundings include rocky foreshore, pandanus and eucalypt forest, basalt columns, and adjacent surf beaches. Wildlife such as brush turkeys, lace monitors and sea eagles may be seen.
