Rum Jungle

Rum Jungle is a remote bush campsite within Mount Barney National Park in Queensland, Australia.

Sheltered within a small pocket of rainforest, it sits in the saddle between Mount Barney's east and west peaks, near the headwaters of both Egan Creek and Barney Gorge Creek.

The site is accessible via several demanding routes, including Peasants Ridge and the Yellowpinch and South East Ridge trails, with approaches typically requiring 8–12 hours of hiking over rugged, exposed terrain.

It is one of the few designated camping areas on Mount Barney, making it a key destination for experienced bushwalkers tackling the mountain's challenging peaks.
