This park is situated on the eastern escarpment with extensive tall old-growth eucalypt forest, rainforest, threatened frog species,
yellow-bellied gliders (
Petaurus australis) and
koalas. 'Cottan-bimbang' is the local Aboriginal word for the walking stick palm (
Linospadix monostachyos), which grows in the park's temperate rainforests. Blackberries (
Rubus) are creating a serious weed problem in the park. There is a barbecue area, picnic area and public toilets at Stockyard Creek on the Oxley Highway and a cleared area for picnics next to Cells River on Myrtle Scrub Road. There is a cleared area for camping at Maxwells Flat on the Causeway Road, and a long drop toilet. ==See also==
