Become a 'Friends of Parks' volunteer at Mapleton Falls National Park and help the local Rangers with a variety of activities that will benefit a much-loved rainforest ecosystem on the Blackall Range.

These tasks may include:

• manual removal of various weeds
• minor maintenance and repairs to the walking track
• maintenance tasks including oiling of picnic tables and painting orientation signs
• native revegetation and planting
• rubbish collection
• recording of fauna and flora observations, and more

Over time we hope the group develops a connection with the area and continues to gain knowledge and appreciation for this national park.

As a volunteer, you can expect to:

• make connections with like-minded people and other local environmental groups;
• learn about the different ecosystems and identify native and invasive species that exist within the park;
• gain hands-on experience with safe work methods and best practice environmental management and trail building techniques;
• enjoy being active outdoors and feel good about helping the environment;
• meet local QPWS Rangers who manage these areas.
