That\u2019s why our rangers consulted with the Traditional custodians to provide richer cultural insights for visitors and ensure crucial ties to country are maintained.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is a place that should be on everyone\u2019s \u2018to do\u2019 list over the Christmas holidays, and take advantage of the cooler temperatures during the height of summer.&#8221;<\/p>\n<table width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"3\" cellpadding=\"3\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><figure id=\"attachment_193780\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-193780\" style=\"width: 360px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/southburnett.com.au\/news2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/20171026bunya3.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-193780\" title=\"20171026 Bunya Mountains\" src=\"http:\/\/southburnett.com.au\/news2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/20171026bunya3.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"360\" height=\"540\" srcset=\"https:\/\/southburnett.com.au\/news2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/20171026bunya3.jpg 290w, https:\/\/southburnett.com.au\/news2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/20171026bunya3-200x300.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 360px) 100vw, 360px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-193780\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Children will love exploring the Discovery Table (Photo: Qld Government)<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/td>\n<td><figure id=\"attachment_193782\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-193782\" style=\"width: 360px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/southburnett.com.au\/news2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/20171026bunya4.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-193782\" title=\"20171026 Bunya Mountains\" src=\"http:\/\/southburnett.com.au\/news2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/20171026bunya4.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"360\" height=\"540\" srcset=\"https:\/\/southburnett.com.au\/news2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/20171026bunya4.jpg 290w, https:\/\/southburnett.com.au\/news2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/20171026bunya4-200x300.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 360px) 100vw, 360px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-193782\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Visitor Mick Piper at one of the new barbecue areas (Photo: Qld Government)<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<figure id=\"attachment_193784\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-193784\" style=\"width: 740px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/southburnett.com.au\/news2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/20171026bunya2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-193784\" title=\"20171026 Bunya Mountains\" src=\"http:\/\/southburnett.com.au\/news2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/20171026bunya2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"740\" height=\"460\" srcset=\"https:\/\/southburnett.com.au\/news2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/20171026bunya2.jpg 620w, https:\/\/southburnett.com.au\/news2\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/20171026bunya2-300x186.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 740px) 100vw, 740px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-193784\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The new picnic tables which have been erected at Dandabah (Photo: Qld Government)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The picnic area and National Park visitor information centre at Dandabah have enjoyed a $330,000 upgrade, thanks to the State Government.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":20,"featured_media":193779,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[16,3,10],"tags":[81,1130],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v19.11 -
