Lake Bindegolly National Park

break the burnt orange slopes and plains leading down to a series of glistening lakes. A refuge for waterbirds, Lake Bindegolly National Park centres around one of the most important wetland systems in south-west Queensland.

The park features three lakes - the saline Lakes Bindegolly and Toomaroo and the freshwater Lake Hutchinson. Each lake is a separate basin, but they join to form a ribbon of water after heavy rain.

Vegetation on the park includes samphire herbfields, mulga open shrubland and low woodland and gidgee woodland. The lake system supports a diverse range of animals and is an important feeding and breeding habitat for waterbirds.
