Queensland Parks and Wildlife Service (QPWS) will be conducting planned burning in the Mt Razorback/Lost World & Mt Widgee at Green Mountains section of Lamington National Park, including aerial incendiary ignition, during the month of September 2024, as part of the annual hazard reduction/conservation management program for parks and forests.

These burns are being undertaken to help protect life and property in the event of a wildfire and to maintain healthy forests.

Smoke may be seen in the vicinity of O’Reilly, Kerry and Left Hand Branch Road. Persons with respiratory or other health problems should seek medical advice on mitigating the effects of smoke inhalation.

During the planned burn period, these areas are closed to public access:

• Lost World creek remote bush camp site

All permits for closed areas are suspended for the duration of the closure.
