Palparara Station is a pastoral lease that operates as a cattle station in the outback of Queensland.
It is situated 136 kilometres (85 mi) north west of Windorah and 245 kilometres (152 mi) north east of Birdsville. Farrar's Creek flows through the property between the Barcoo and Thomson Rivers. It once adjoined Davenport Downs, Monkira, Morney Plains, Currawilla and Connemara Stations.
