Welcome to Boombana, a captivating establishment nestled in the breathtaking D'Aguilar National Park, just a stone's throw away from the vibrant city of Brisbane. As a point of interest and a renowned tourist attraction, Boombana offers an unforgettable experience for nature enthusiasts and adventure seekers alike.

Prepare to be inspired as you embark on a journey through the diverse environments and stunning plant communities that make up D'Aguilar National Park. From open eucalypt woodlands to enchanting subtropical rainforests, this park boasts an impressive array of over 800 plant species, including some that are rare and threatened.

The park's cool mountain tops and forest flats create a rich and varied habitat for an abundance of wildlife. Immerse yourself in the mountain climate, where ferns and mosses thrive, and catch a glimpse of the elusive giant barred frogs and spiny crayfish in the crystal-clear mountain streams. At night, witness the lively activity of yellow-bellied gliders and short-eared possums in the towering open forest. Keep your eyes peeled for the vulnerable powerful owl, a resident predator that preys on small animals such as possums and snakes. Birdwatchers will be delighted by the opportunity to spot bowerbirds, wompoo fruit-doves, bell miners, and the majestic yellow-tailed black-cockatoos that grace the forest with their presence.

For an up-close encounter with the remarkable native animals of the region, a visit to the Walkabout Creek Discovery Centre is a must. This comprehensive complex features a visitor information centre, wedding centre, café, and Wildlife Centre, where you can marvel at the incredible wildlife that calls this area home.
