Croajingolong National Park is a coastal national park in East Gippsland, Australia. The name Croajingolong derives from the Aboriginal Krauatungalung words galung, meaning "belonging to" and kraua, meaning "east".
The diverse coastal landscapes feature rocky outcrops, large stretches of sandy beaches, coastal dunes and freshwater rivers, making the park a popular destination for hiking and walking, swimming, diving, snorkelling and sea kayaking.
The eastern section of the park lies within the Nadgee to Mallacoota Inlet Important Bird Area, so identified by BirdLife International because it supports populations of eastern bristlebirds and pilotbirds as well as other significant fauna.
Croajingolong's landscapes are so spectacular and environmentally significant that UNESCO nominated it a World Biosphere Reserve in 1977. The park houses impressive biodiversity, including almost 1,000 native plant species and 315 animal species.
Access to Croajingolong National Park is very hard, and can only be accessed by a good 4WD, meaning, there's no other ways to get to apart from a car. From Cann River, head east onto A1 Princes Highway, and then turn onto West Wingan Road and keep heading south onto a series of unpaved roads, until you'll eventually hit the park. The unpaved road however, can be rough, and rain can make it worse.
Just turn up to the park. No fees required.
Some of the smaller places can only be reached by trekking but your car should take you to the more important places.
No places to eat. Bring your own food
