Due to the limited rainfall in the region over the past few months, the Queensland Parks and Wildlife Service has temporarily closed the showers at the Clancys and Emu Creek camping areas in Benarkin State Forest.<\/p>\n

They will stay closed until the region receives sufficient rainfall.<\/p>\n

The Scenic Circuit walking track at the Bunya Mountains has also been temporarily closed.<\/strong><\/p>\n

A QPWS spokesman said the track would be closed from the Dandabah entrance to Festoon Falls for visitor safety.<\/p>\n

“Please observe all barriers and directional signage, and do not enter the closed area,” a QPWS statement said.<\/p>\n

“Access to the Pine Creek Lookout will remain open from the Dandabah day use area entrance via Tim Shea Falls<\/p>\n
