Cania Gorge National Park boasts spectacular sandstone scenery with lush rainforest along creeks and gorges and dry open eucalypt woodland. The spectacular landscape of prominent sandstone cliffs, caves, eucalypt forest and dry rainforest on sheltered slopes make it an impressive park. Side gullies and creeks provide cool, moist palces for ferns and mosses. High above 70m cliffs and a rugged expanse of open woodland is typical of central Queensland's extensive sandstone belt. The parks 3000 hectares is also an important habitat for wildlife.

There are private campgrounds near Cania Dam and the southern entrance to the park.
