In Porcupine Gorge National Park, towering sandstone cliffs and lush vine-forest fringing Porcupine Creek provide a striking contrast with surrounding flat plains. This impressive canyon reveals layers of sedimentary rocks spanning millions of years. The gorge is a great place for viewing wildlife, especially birds. Take a 2.4 kilometre walk along a track to the base of the gorge. Listen for the calls of currawongs, parrots and soaring birds of prey. Look closely to see black ducks, red-winged parrots, pardalotes and honeyeaters. You may also see common wallaroos and rock-wallabies.
