The West Cooroy National Park is a national park in Queensland, Australia. It is situated to the west and south-west of Cooroy in the Noosa hinterland.[1]
Transfer from state forest
On 25 January 2023 the former West Cooroy State Forest was transferred to the Department of Environment and Science as a newly created national park at no cost to the community. The site was not previously subject to any forestry work and therefore no ownership buyout was required.[1]
