Southwood is a national park in Queensland, Australia, 288 km west of Brisbane.

Brigalow-belah forest remnants are conserved in this park on the western Darling Downs.

Cypress pine, poplar box, wilga bush, false sandalwood, western teatree and other plant species common throughout the semi-arid lands also grow in the park.

These form by constant wetting and drying of the heavy clay soils.

Explorers Allan Cunningham and Thomas Mitchell passed this way but the surrounding area was slow to attract settlers.
