Tregole is a national park in South West Queensland, Australia, 603 km (375 mi) west of Brisbane. Until the gazetting of the park in 1975, the area was a grazing property. The park is located where the brigalow and mulga biospheres meet and has a representative sample of semi-arid ecosystems.
The park contains almost pure stands of the vulnerable ooline tree.[1] The ooline stand in Tregole is unusual as the climate is hot and dry.
The park has no camping facilities. There is a day-use area 10 km (6.2 mi) south of Morven on the Morven–Bollon Road.[2] The day-use area has a short (2.1 km, 1.3 mi) walk.
