Wanggoolba Creek

Wanggoolba Creek is a clear, spring-fed creek flowing through subtropical rainforest on K'gari (Fraser Island) within Great Sandy National Park, Fraser Coast Region, Queensland. Originating near Central Station, it is notable for its exceptionally clear water, white sandy bed, and fringing ancient king ferns and rainforest. An elevated boardwalk allows visitors to view the creek without disturbing its fragile ecosystem, making it a key natural attraction on the island's central rainforest circuit.

Visitors can expect a tranquil rainforest setting with a shallow, crystal-clear creek flowing over white sand beneath a canopy of satinay, brush box, palms and ancient king ferns. An elevated timber boardwalk of approximately 1 km return follows the creek, with interpretive signs explaining ecology and forestry history. The area is shaded, quiet and located adjacent to the former Central Station forestry camp, offering close views of clear water, ferns and rainforest vegetation.
