Kings Plains National Park Plan of Management

The majority of Kings Plains National Park consists of undulating hills with numerous steep ridges and gorges that fall away to the west. Kings Plains Creek is a visually spectacular feature of the park with its associated deep rocky gorge, waterfalls and rapids.

Eight native vegetation communities occur in Kings Plains National Park, including McKieis stringybark/blackbutt open forest which is listed as endangered ecological community under the Threatened Species Conservation Act 1995. The park also contains a large proportion of old growth forest with numerous tree-hollows providing important habitat for native animals.

A small picnic and camping area are located around Kings Plains Creek in the south-eastern section of the park. There is also an unmarked walking route along the banks of the creek, which allows visitors to access the falls and appreciate the park environment.
