Clump Mountain is a national park in Far North Queensland, Australia, 1,287 kilometres (800 mi) northwest of Brisbane. It is part of the Coastal Wet Tropics Important Bird Area, identified as such by BirdLife International because of its importance for the conservation of lowland tropical rainforest birds.[1] Here is an important habitat of the endangered southern cassowary, a large flightless bird, which has been recorded only in the tropical rainforests of Queensland and New Guinea.[2]
Estimated altitude is 240 metres.[3]
