Porcupine Gorge National Park

Porcupine Gorge National Park is a protected area in Flinders Shire, North Queensland, about 60 km north of Hughenden. Often called Australia's Little Grand Canyon, it preserves a deep gorge carved by Porcupine Creek through 500-million-year-old sandstone. The park is notable for its dramatic Pyramid monolith, colourful gorge walls, seasonal waterholes and open woodland, offering scenic lookouts and walking tracks in a remote outback setting.

Visitors can expect a rugged outback gorge landscape with a lookout at the gorge rim and walking tracks descending into the gorge floor. The main Pyramid Track leads to the base of the freestanding Pyramid monolith and Porcupine Creek. Surroundings include sandstone cliffs, open eucalypt woodland and seasonal creek pools. Areas to explore include the Porcupine Gorge Lookout, Pyramid Track and gorge floor, with opportunities for bushwalking, photography, birdwatching, picnicking and camping at the designated campground.
