About Mapleton Falls National Park
Mapleton Falls is a national park near the town of Mapleton on the Blackall Range in South East Queensland, Australia, 95 kilometres (59 mi) north of Brisbane. The falls are part of Pencil Creek and drop 120 metres (390 ft). The waterfall became a forest reserve in 1938 and then in 1973 it was declared a national park.
