Queensland
While Queensland is large in size, the national parks that are of interest to bushwalkers are generally quite small and scattered along the eastern side near the ocean. The extensive dry plains that sweep inland are generally of little interest to bushwalkers. The main issues for bushwalkers are the vast distances and the hot humid tropical climate. To camp in any National Park, permits are needed and generally campsites are restricted to a maximum of 12 people at a time. For popular places it is advised to book ahead for permits.
