Kinrara is a volcano in Queensland, Australia. [1] It is one of the youngest volcanoes in Australia, and erupted 7,000 years ago (± 2000 years). [2]
Lavas flowed 55 km from the crater, and cover 173 km2. According to one study, the Gugu-Badhun people have oral traditions that may describe the volcano erupting, equivalent to around 230 ± 70 generations ago. [2]
Wetlands at the Valley of Lagoons occur around the boundary between the Kinrara flow and the Burdekin River.
