Tips for Visiting Nicoll Scrub National Park #

Nicoll Scrub is a small protected remnant with limited or no facilities and short walking tracks; check the Queensland Parks website for the exact track map and current access information before you travel.
Tracks and slopes can become slippery after rain and there are few services on-site, so check park alerts for closures and seasonal advice from park managers.
