Duggan Park is the only all abilities bushland park in Toowoomba. Within its eight hectares of primarily eucalypt forest ecosystem (12.5.6) there are four short walks with views of the Great Dividing Range and Table Top Mountain (Meewah). A sensory walk is suitable for wheelchairs and has a rope guide to assist vision impaired visitors. Access to the park is via Collier Street or Lesley Street, Rangeville, Toowoomba.
The park is named for John (Jack) Duggan, former Queensland Deputy Premier, Opposition leader and Mayor of Toowoomba. A plaque at the lookout over Meewah acknowledges Multuggerah, a leader among the Jagera people in the 1830s-1840s who united diverse groups and successfully led resistance to European settlement for three years 1843 – 1846.


A book detailing plants found in J E Duggan Park with colour photographs of each plant is an excellent guide for identification. Copies can be purchased from the FEP for $5 by contacting the Secretary secretaryFEP@gmail.com. There is also a report of an unusual fungus found in the park.
A comprehensive survey of birdlife was undertaken in 2023 and an updated report was prepared from observations undertaken in 2024. Observations recorded in eBird, Birdata, and iNaturalist offer up to date information about fauna and flora observed in the park. Annual reports (2023, 2024) describe the ongoing work being undertaken by FEP.
Volunteers meet on the second Saturday of the month. If you might be interested in becoming involved, please contact Kaye – Phone: 0402 183 087 | Email: kwoodriley@gmail.com.
