The Amamoor State Forest and Forest Reserve is a riverine rainforest inland from the Sunshiine Coast in Queensland, Australia. The forest is composed of subtropical vegetation dominated by stands of "Melia azedarach" (White Cedar), "Toona ciliata" (Red Cedar), "Araucaria cunninghamii" (Hoop Pine) and "A. bidwillii" (Bunya Pine). The Amamoor creek within the reserve is noted as a habitat for the platypus and several species of endangered frogs. The park station is located about 150 kilometers north of Brisbane and 20 kilometers southwest of the town of Gympie along the Amamoor Creek Road.
