The Apudthama National Park (formerly Jardine River National Park) is a national park in Queensland, Australia, 2,137 km (1,328 mi) northwest of Brisbane and about 900 km (559 mi) northwest of Cairns, on the tip of Cape York Peninsula.[1]

The park and reserves encompass the traditional country of several Aboriginal groups including people from the Atambaya, Angkamuthi, Yadhaykenu, Gudang and Wuthathi language and social groups. The area is a living cultural landscape, with places and features named in Aboriginal languages, story-places and story-beings, and occupation and ceremony sites throughout. Today the traditional owners retain a strong and continuing interest, through their traditional rights to, and responsibilities for, the land, in the protection and management of the area.[2]

In 2022, land formerly encompassing Jardine River National Park, Heathlands Resources Reserve and Jardine Resources Reserve were re-described as Apudthama National Park and transferred to traditional owners.[3][4]

Coastal features

Coastal features include:[5]
