==History== The park was originally named the Lumholtz National Park, after scientist [[Carl Sofus Lumholtz]], when it was created in 1994. The [[Blencoe Falls]] Section was gazetted as part of Lumholtz National Park in 2000. The name was subsequently changed to Girringun in 2003. On National Parks Day 2010 (28 March) the Government of Queensland announced the addition of {{convert|2810|ha}} to the park.<ref>Jones, Kate (28 March 2010).
