Where is the Lost World in S.E. Qld.


We have heard that there is a park somewhere in the Scenic Rim. (ie South East corner Qld)

The park is called Lost World and the Christmas Creek camp spot.

Do anyone know where the Lost World Park is located.

Is it perhaps Darlington Park to the east of Beaudesert Qld.????

Can not find either of the above on Wiki Camp.

No luck with Mr Google.

Cheers

Jay&Dee

There is Of Course also O'Reilly's in Lamington Park which is well worth the trip. Normally Accessed through Canungra.

If you are exploring the 'Lost World' area  there is a 4x4 track called Duck Creek Road that takes you up the escarpment to the O'Reilly's resort in the Lamington National Park

Not advised to take a Van. It is a real 4x4 track but well worth the trip. It was done in an old Mazda two wheel drive daily by a young Lady who worked at the resort but her Mazda only lasted two years Lol.

First time I did the trip I had my sister in law with us out from the UK. Got to the top, no GPS or Map so at the top where it joined the Canungra O'Reilly's road I turned Left. Duh!!!!  Took me down the Hill to Canungra.

It is well worth exploring the area.

 On one trip home from O'Rileys, I noticed the Duck Creek sign so I took the LH turn in my beaut GQ Patrol & down we went.

It was an interesting trip with at least one great stop (potential overnighter camp site) with a fantastic view.

The GQ with HT tyres (only very slightly deflated rears), did it with ease & not a very testing 4WD (4xHigh) trip.  Perhaps I was just lucky to strike the track in good condition & was going downhill.
