Picturesque creek scenery, lush rainforest remnants and grassy open eucalypt forest make Crediton State Forest well worth a visit.

Tall, stately rose gums more than a century old remain along Crediton Loop Road. Crediton is one of few areas in northern Queensland that you can see these beautiful trees. The forest also contains relics of gold mining exploration during the 1880s.

Quiet country roads and farming communities here provide country charm. Just outside the state forest, Crediton Hall is a key feature of the area. It has brought this small community together for more than 60 years. In its early days, the hall was both a classroom and community hall. Today, it's part of the recreation reserve and serves as a camping area for weary walkers and travellers.

Following old forestry tracks through Crediton State Forest's open woodland, you can continue south to enjoy the cool breezes and open outlooks of Denham Range camping area.
