Lawn Hill Gorge is in the Boodjamulla (Lawn Hill) National Park, about 100 kilometres west of Gregory Downs in Queensland. One of the great activities in this National Park is to canoe in Lawn Hill Gorge. This gorge is fed by a freshwater springs coming through the limestone which makes the water appear green.
We hired the paddles for the canoes from Adels Grove and were told the canoes were located by the waters edge past the information centre of the National Park. You are also welcome to use your own canoes - motors are not allowed. The middle gorge is quite large and the paddling is easy - large sandstone cliffs covered with vegetation are either side of the gorge - keep an eye out for the amazing bird life. At the end of the this gorge you need to pull the canoe out of the water and carry it for about 30 metres over rocks before launching into the upper gorge. This is quite difficult but hand rails and not-slip mats have been installed by the National Park to help. At the end of this gorge you will find the springs that feed this waterway. This was a lovely spot to sit the canoes at the edge of the water and enjoy a refreshing swim.
