About Astrebla Downs
Astrebla Downs National Park is a vast protected area in western Queensland, covering extensive Mitchell grass (Astrebla) plains that are among the most productive pastoral landscapes in Australia. The park is named after the Mitchell grass genus Astrebla, which dominates this region's grassland ecosystems. These grasslands are of international significance as habitat for migratory and nomadic birds, including vast flocks of brolgas and waterfowl that congregate on the floodplains after rainfall. The park offers visitors a chance to experience the immensity and solitude of outback Queensland's treeless plains.
