When exploring Carnarvon Gorge, the advice from National Parks is to trek to the farthest point of the Main Gorge Walk you wish to visit for the day and then retrace and explore each point of interest on your return.
Wards Canyon was accessed via a short, steep climb through spotted gums and we were rewarded with a cool, moisture laden oasis with King Ferns , tree ferns and smaller rainforest vegetation hugging the creek.

Wards Canyon is the only area in Central Queensland that still supports King Ferns. A beautiful spot on our Central Queensland road trip.
