About Coalstoun Lakes National Park
Coalstoun Lakes is a national park in Queensland, Australia, 236 km (147 mi) northwest of Brisbane. It features a volcano, Mount Le Brun, which has two craters that contain intermittent crater lakes. Mount Le Brun is one of the youngest volcanic formations in Australia, although it was formed more than 600,000 years ago. Coalstoun Lakes is Queensland's smallest national park. The average elevation of the terrain is 277 metres (909 ft). The lakes were named by local pioneer, Nugent Wade Brown, in 1894. There are various theories as to the origin of the name. One is that Coalstoun is the corruption of an Aboriginal word Goanalganai.
