Crater Lakes is a national park in Far North Queensland, Queensland, Australia, 1367 km northwest of Brisbane. The park contains two volcanically-formed lakes, Lake Barrine and Lake Eacham (Yidyam). Both lakes have walking trails around each lake; boat tours are also given at Lake Barrine.[1]
One of the recognizable features of the park are giant bull kauri pine trees (Agathis microstachya).[2]
The average elevation of the terrain is 729 metres.[3]
