Very good experience! I went on a scout camp for these caves and I had a very good time! Most of the caves are very open so people that get claustrophobic easily don’t have to worry. I went through 3 caves one cave we had to abseil into. There is a big walk involved but it’s worth it. Definitely would like to go there again.

The picnic spot was great, needed some shelters though as every table was in almost full sun on a very hot autumn day, but well maintained, quiet and pretty. The 600m self guided walk is awful, don't bother with it! Surrounded by weeds and fallen trees, just a mess and ugly, and the signs are so old most cant be read. That section needs a major overhaul.

The walking track is well marked, but I am not sure if the rangers have been clearing and burning, but it seems all of the "noted marks" on the path have died, or been killed off. Very strange. The markers describe a specific tree or plant, and that is dead. I hope it is not an act of vandalism. The cave entrance is sealed and out of bounds. I actually walked the rangers 4WD track, and was more impressed with the stands of trees and lush natural areas away from the self guided walk. The facilities at the main start point are well kept and of a high standard.

Went with the Scout's and it was exhilarating. Some nice little challenges which kids fly through an 8yr old. A 9 yr old and a 13yr old alll managed with ease.

All signs faded and unreadable not even worth stopping!! Ps long unsealed grave road to get to. Watch out for echidna.

I can not find any cove here but there have so many beautiful butterfly and small walk trail .

Amazing walk up top of Mount Etna well worth it and we timed in nicely for the sun to go down.. so much more to look at yet so far so good

Spent over 2 hours at Mt Archer, which allows you to take in the views of Rockhampton and the Fitzroy River. Fantastic views! Great Boardwalk! The road to the top is tarred. There are picnic tables and bbq’s. There are heaps of Grass Trees (black boys) Great place for a family day out! Staying around for a wonderful sunset is a must!

Excellent lookout; well worth the drive. But don't stop at the "main" area (where the Kiosk bldg is), check out the "Nurim Circuit Elevated Boardwalk" which is about 100m away. But (IMHO) do NOT do the walk to Sliepner Lookout!

Nice view but nothing else. Just for a quick walk to take pictures.

We only did a small section of the Zion hike and it was stunning. Really well maintained, beautiful views and vegetation.

Make sure you do the short Nurim walk which is easy as it is mostly boardwalk or similar. It leads to a fantastic unobstructed view. This is important as where you first arrive on top of Mt Archer, the view is obstructed by trees.

What a magical lookout to watch the sun set over Rockhampton, this tree top canopy walk is a must see atop Mt Archer Rockhampton ☀️ “Jonique Life” Follow our journey around Australia on Facebook, Instagram, Tik Tok and YouTube as we highlight wonderful experiences and magical places you can add to your ever growing bucket list.

Stunning views, good place to visit

Covers the period 1850-1950 with buildings from the local area. Set on spacious grounds, each building has it's own story to tell. Incredibly cheap when compared to other such venues I have visited.

For an entrance fee of $6 per person, well worth a look around for a couple of hours. Lots of effort gone into the display houses and buildings. Nice and clean and well looked after.

Absolutely loved visiting the village with all the authentic attractions from a time gone by all lovingly restored and displayed. Easy walk around all the displays and plenty of room to stop and take in all the historical sights without feeling rushed A lovely info centre and well staffed with people who were happy to chat about their village. The entry cost was relatively cheaper than most other attractions of the same calibre well worth visiting if in the area

Fantastic day spent. Lots to see. Best $6 ever for a snapshot of the past

An absolutely amazing experience, stepping back in time seeing how people lived, went to school and made a living. How far we have come in a short time

A real cross section of history. From how people lived and worked in the region. Great displays of cars and buggy, to fire and hospital with quite a few houses thrown in. I was there for 2 hours, and didnt see everything. I will be back!

What an amazing place, so much to see. Loved this place had to go back the next day to finish seeing it all. They only charged entry fee for the first entry only, so cheap only $5 to get in. The staff were amazing, so knowledgeable and friendly.

We wanted to enjoy a gentle walk and good company, and chose Kershaw Gardens, which delivered nicely. There is a good selection of pathways, trees and shrubs to create a peaceful ambiance. For those with kids, there is a great recreation park. Toilets are available in the central area.

I’m at this park all the time as it’s close to home. Great walking tracks and bicycle tracks. In summer the mozzies are out of control and I have fled a few times because of them. Not a lot of new plants that I can see but I am pleased that they have finally cleaned up some of the water weed as I couldn’t even see where the creek ran a few months ago.

Great gardens awesome walks well maintained lots of facilities picnic tables and playgrounds

Council has done a wonderful job with the update of the camping area. Pity some people can't read the signs. Rear parking, 48hrs and no tents!

A visit to the Kershaw Gardens is very worthwhile. It provides recreational opportunities for all people and interests. There is a good botanical collection of native plants; birdwatching; a large playground to challenge toddlers and primary school kids; quite areas meet, picnic or meditate. I really enjoyed my visit during my recent holiday. Plenty of parking. John.

Great spot to stretch your legs. The gardens are well maintained and the waterfall area is very attractive. There is even a leash free area for dogs. There is a 48 hour free camp next to these gardens.

Since Kershaw Gardens has been re vamped with bitumen, line markings and clear delineation between overnight camping for SC caravans/motor homes and day parking for cars, it has been a tremendous improvement. Now with space to put out an awning and with tan bark and trees planted in rows between the back to back camping spots, everyone knows where to safely park for up to 48 hours. Soo close to walk to Stockland shopping centre without having to worry about finding a park space. Well done Kershaw Gardens.

The RMOA has a great selection of modern art from Australian artists. The current displays are examples of some fantastic first nation artists. I really enjoyed walking around the galleries. And what an addition to Rockys community and for its tourism. Free entry and a cool space on a hot day.

Absolutely brilliant! The place is stunning, The Cafe is brilliantly positioned, Elevators if you're unable to take the stairs, there are also wheel chair ramps for wheelchair access. The gift store is stunning with amazing gifts and accessories. It's a must visit when you're ever in Rockhampton! Cameron

Wonderful gallery, free entry, quite frequent new exhibits so always worth a visit.

1F the counter gave me a big smile. 2F have a space for kid, looks like some course, 3F have some beautiful painting , I like the artist emphases the rain as the foundation of the painting. And 3F toilet for clean dirty is very sweet.

A must visit in the city of Rockhampton, from the art to the views everything is stunning here. The art gallery is also free of charge 🤩

Many and varied works of art, that range from realistic landscapes to highly interactive abstract pieces. Paintings, statutes, audio visual exhibits abound here. It was free to explore on the day I visited and I reckon well worth checking out.

This was great fun. Kids loved it and found something around every turn. The cardboard building station was a hit as were the drawings. Mad max inspired art was fun. It's over 3 levels but no complaints from the kids as they had a lot of fun. It's free to look at and well worth a look.

We loved our visit here soaking in how travelling by trains was done in a bygone era and all the effort needed to make it happen! This railway station was constructed in the same architecturally pleasing style as the ones in Mt Morgan, Emerald, and Longreach. There are plenty of volunteers around to answer any questions and do guided tours for groups. There is a Cafe on-site to provide refreshments if required. Allow at least an hour to enjoy this experience.

Very interesting museum that celebrates the history of trains and trams in Rockhampton. There are a lot of interactive activities, including a ride on a historic tram (only on Sundays, I believe). Tour guides offer more insight to the exhibits.

Great staff and lots to look to at. The steam tram was well worth a look. It doesn’t go very far week days, if you want to ride the tram your better to go on the weekend.

If like me, you luv trains and trams, then you will be in Nirvana here. ✅ An awesome museum, where you can literally get hands-on with the exhibits, climbing aboard decommissioned trains and trams, as well as related operating systems, at this beautifully presented retired station. Just fantastic and I will be back ... 🚃 🚂

A really well done museum explaining the history of railways in the area On Sunday they run a historical steam tramway tour in an original steam powered tram, the only one of it’s type still working worldwide There are many other interesting exhibits in the museum and it is well worth a visit

A great railway museum housed in a former railway station. Features the only operational steam tram in Australia

The volunteers have really put their all into this place. Beautiful displays and very clever soundscape on the platform with life like models. My kids loved the ride on the tram. A well spent morning in Rockhampton.

Went for a walk after seeing the zoo. Lovely gardens (we didn’t see every section but enjoyed what we saw). The Japanese section was lovely. Next time I’d bring a picnic - plenty of spaces to unwind and there was a nice looking kids playground with undercover BBQ’s.

Well worth taking a stroll through the many different areas these gardens have to offer. Parking can be difficult to find, but if you drive down towards the lagoon it's not so busy there. Japanese Gardens were under maintenance, so didn't get to enjoy them. Combine these Botanical Gardens with the zoo next-door and you can have a relaxing enjoyable day!

Wow the playground is incredible! It gets raked and cleaned every day so it was tidy when we arrived in the morning! All gardens were spectacular, very clean tidy and green! Lots of love and work goes into the garden and you can tell!

Visited May 2025 The gardens are quite large. Being May there weren't many flowers in bloom making it a little visually boring . The plants around the floral clock needed a trim because you couldn't see it. I love Japanese gardens but I found this one without the wow factor. The banyan figs around the tea rooms provide lots of shade and are beautiful. Food is quite good from the tea rooms I had zucchini fritters with a small salad and my husband had the eggs benedict on a bed of bacon which he said was delicious. The blue eye honeyeaters and rainbow lorikeets jump on the tables wanting to be fed, you can almost touch them. There is a childrens playground not far from tea rooms but not close enough to keep an eye on your kids. Down at Murrays Lagoon many water birds along the banks and looking in the water from the wetland lookout are so many river turtles popping up looking for a feed. I would have liked to see information boards explaining the different gardens. The gardens are 33hectares which I googled is around 46 soccer fields (for those who need a comparison, as I did!) so plenty of room for riding a bike or a long walk. I'd like to think it is more appealing in spring. But none the less a good walk and a tea rooms a lovely place for a cuppa. Overall underwhelming.

Lovely place to have a walk/run. Plenty to see from plants, turtles down a murray lagoon. Large play park for the kids. Even coffee shop. Plenty toliets and park for all.

Great zoo and gardens. We needed more time than we had to fully explore the extensive gardens.

A great botanical gardens that offers some of the best scenery and walking tracks in the area

Nice spot

A great experience and a huge learning curve on how to fossick for the Thunder Eggs. We stayed the night at the campground and Don made us feel welcome from arrival. An additional pleasure was having ‘Bobby’ accompany us for the duration of our stay. Highly recommended.

These guys help show us what to do. It was the first time looking for thunder eggs. They show us what to look for and help us. The kids had a blast and us parents did too. The view of the mountains was amazing. They had a few chairs and shared tree to sit under and relax. They really look after the kids by having blocks they could stand on to see, the stones after they were cut and keep them apart of the entire experience. They had poppers to buy and little car/bikes to help keep the little ones happy. The kids filled up a bag of litter stones we purchased from the shop. The staff were friendly and helpful. They really made a delightful experience for the entire family and made sure it was enjoyed by the family. Taking care to think about the needs of their guests and providing for them. Thank you for a wonderful experience and the lovely cut thunder eggs we found. The nicest one will proudly be displayed on our book shelf as a beautiful memory of our adventure with you. Thank you for a wonderful experience.

Great find! I thought it woupd be boring, something just for the kids...but no, i was more committed to the hunt than i anticipated, was terrific having them cut to take home. They have bbqs (for byo snags), toilets, free drinking water, little bikes (balance bikes & trikes), enclosed shoes to borrow if needed, foam knealing pad, little step things to sit on which is amazing for bad knees or all us getting on in age..... I recomend to take a picnic rug and some snacks, toy buckets or toy cars for little kids for when rock hunting (& old clothes) then snags for after youre rocks have been cut. We also saw they have showers, camping grounds and swings. They sell beautiful array of gems, precious stones, jewellery & gem home decor items - all are fair prices for the pieces you get and the quality. Food wise they have a little cafe, icecreams and icypoles. Staff were lovely, very helpful and knowledgable, they had a seriously adorable friendly dog too. All of the staff seemed to genuinely love seeing our kids faces (and ours!) Light up seeing the incredible patterns and precious materials which were inside of our finds. Suprised how many they cut for us. We got to take uncut ones with us too. Worth the drive, easy to spend 4-5 hours here. With kids, take rugs, sone trucks or cars, and snacks - ours enjoyed dipping in and out of the thunderegg search. Without those toys and bikes it prob wouldnt have been as enjoyable for them, they can only look at rocks for so long 🤣

We had a wonderful experience and stay at Mt Hay! We loved spending the day hunting for Thunder Eggs and Rainforest Jasper, as well as making friends with Bobby the friendly puppy! We left with some lovely cut pieces and some uncut for us to learn ourselves. Thank you for a great stay 😊

Great experience fossicking for thundereggs and the having some of your finds cut open for you! Ice cream and drinks available after you have worked up a sweat! It was fun continuing to look through the piles to find your fortune! Camping available onsite for those interested.

Absolutely loved this side quest we went on during our travels. The guys running it were lovely and it was nice to be able to take the dog. They have a lovely dog called bobby who is a cheeky chap 🤣 You get so much for your money and if you’re lucky you will see the owners cutting up so awesome stones for the shop. The rock garden also blew my mind. Huge chunks of stones I would pay a lot of money for only $30pkg. If I didn’t have to fly home to Europe I would have handed over my credit card! Wish we camped there too!

What a gem of a place to stay and fossick. The staff are delightful and the camping is cheap. I spent the day fossicking for Thunder Eggs and was so delighted with my stash! They even cut some for me free of charge. If you love fossicking, this is the place to visit.

Wow, this museum is amazing. So much history about Mt Morgan and life in general, back in the "good old days!" Great to wander around reading the information boards that were a plenty and were truly fascinating! Certainly make the effort and time to come and check this place out for yourself! Allow an hour or two to take it all in. They only ask for a donation to enter. Excellent valve!

Awesome, took few hundred photos of stuff over a hundred years old, very interesting go see for yourself, only $6 admission plenty to see from horse and carts, fire engines, every invention the last 100 years or so, pretty cool displays

Enjoyed our visit very much. Lots of history. Would be nice to know who donated all the bits and pieces. So great to see.

We spent ages going through here, so interesting to learn about the history of Mt Morgan Gold Mine, surrounding areas and the pioneer times. Out the back was an old hearse, fire engine and Vespa motorbike. Very comprehensive museum, with lots to see. Allow lots of time.

Loved this museum , so much history and great people…you do need cash $6 each …was also pet friendly

A good place to stop in and see some interesting things. Great county town, and a few attractions to see while your there, spend the day.

Step back in time to discover the history of the Mt Morgan region. There's gold in them tha hills💛

THE MINE , OR KNOWN AS MOUNT MORGAN GOLD MINE CO (LEASE) WAS ABANDONED IN 1981, AND SOLD TO MYSELF IN 2013, BY THE DEPT OF NATURAL RESOURCES , WHICH CONTAINS 3 LEASES, AND 2 separate properties. Which the leases contain approximately 300 homes, give or take. And as of 22/6/2025 have (not) Leased any land to anyone , in regards to TheMine, MountMorgan goldmine, or the town Mount Morgan. Which all are the same. RP

Big wet hole

Love it

Nice dam to pull up and go for a swim or fishing, clean amenities , kids playground and overall really nice quiet place to sit.

Was very low. It was eerie being able to walk right up to the gates on the water side.

Great park for the little ones , plenty of BBQs and covered seating areas . Walking areas for the dogs and always activity to watch in the water . Great spot

Water levels are fairly low but in spite of that a nice quiet location to relax.

Nice picnic spot. Long way to the water at the moment.

It's so very dry! I walked along the 'wall' until the spillway. Very hot but worthwhile. Picnic area ✅ Shade ✅ Interesting ✅

A great spot to have a fish relax & soak in nature great picnic & play area for the kids to hang out

We stayed at the RV park and it was outstanding. Free entry to the museum for $25 overnight stay. Clean toilets, power and water included. Quiet lots of open grass areas. Staff were helpful and the museum is a splendid step back in time. Machinery, vehicles and living from the 20th century. Highly recommended stay for anyone with a van.

Fabulous place to stay .$15 unpowered site with water .Excellent toilets and showers .You can wander around the outside exhibits .Minimal road news . Post and rail cafe open 10 -4 daily with great coffee ☕️ ♥️

This caravan park is a great find. $25 power and water plus the heritage museum included. Really nice facilities. They special offers running, judt ask. Sometime closed due to rain and black soil.

Wonderful spot to stay for a night or two. They have a 48 hour max. stay. The amenities are the best I have seen anywhere for a long time and are clean and modern. There is power and water hook up and at $25 a night I wouldn't stay anywhere else in Biloela. All staff are voluntary and very helpful. Highly recommend.

Thanks so much for the 2 nights stay. A great museum and camp site. We camped out the back for $10 a night - no power. Power will cost you $15 a night. We have a camper trailer (patriot) and it just fits, we were in site 14. If you ask for say 15 there is a bit more room as it runs along the roadway. The showers / toilets are very good- clean and tidy. With our stay we were able to see the museum, included in our stay, which was great. We booked ahead to stay as the gates close at 1600 and you need a pass code to get in. There is a hotel within walking distance for meals if needed. A great place to stay and look around Biloela.

Perfect stop for two nights. Entry to the displays was included in the price ($25). Water, power and dump. What more could you need. Clean showers and toilets. Only a short walk to a pub that does awesome steaks and only a 20 minute walk into town where there’s a Woolies and Foodworks.

This is behind the visitor information centre, $15 a night, 2 night stay Max with great amenities, they are ensuite style. The Heritage Park is well worth a wonder around. It is staffed by a couple of lovely la,dies that couldn't be more helpful.

I didn't use the camp ground or facilities. I launched my paddleboard and paddled up the river for 5km, could have gone further but didn't have enough supplies. Great location and plenty of water for this sport. Quiet and tranquil, lots of fish jumping.

Enjoyable experience, plenty of camping spots, flushing toilets, undercover picnic tables and seating, children's playground, rubbish bins. Plenty of green grass, only a small amount of road noise.

Camped one night here. 6kms out of Moura. Lovely clean amenities. $1 for a 2 minute shower. Good water pressure and hot water. BBQs available under roof as you drive in. Fire pits at different places throughout the grounds. Donation box available. Please donate so that the volunteers can keep this wonderful spot open. Lovely spot to stay.

Not too bad... certainly serves the purpose it is intended. I wouldn't rate the amenities highly, but again they are free if that is what you need.

Great little rest area with good, well kept amenities. Electric BBQs available and 1 wood one; fire pits; boat ramp; and a little park area. Donations requested and $1 for 4 min long hot shower. About 7km from town of Moura. Few flies and bugs about especially mozzies in the evening.

Put my boat in out Apex park to fish the Dawson River. Just west of moura. An ideal camp spot for caravans or tired travelers just looking to roll the swag out. Situated around 1 hour west of biloela and 50 minutes to 1 hour south of Baralaba. With a donation fee to the park you can stay of up to 7 nights here. This park has 60 camping sites on the peaceful Dawson River. Is well maintained by local council. With all the facilities, wood fires and gas BBQs, kids play ground as well as for the keen angler a good boat ramp accessible out nearly any water level. 8 minutes away in the town of moura there is super market and 2 pubs with counter meals and drive-thrus. Out the park it's self there a weir just down stream making it a top spot for fishing the stocked yellow belly and the abundant natural population of Saratoga.

Loved this camp.Right on the river clean facilities great view from campsite👍

Stayed 2 nights in Cracow, at the Heritage Museum Caravan Park, and dined at the Cracow Hotel both nights. Delicious meals and very filling. The servings were quite large, and good prices too. Staff and owners are all very friendly to deal with, and interesting to chat with. Definitely recommend a feed and drink here, if only to support a small town business. Do yourself a favour and visit. Gus and Kerrie - Brisbane.

Travelled here to show the wife and kids the area. Had lunch at the pub which was great. Food was delicious and drinks were cold. Very country pub with info on the history of the town. Great service. Would recommend a visit if in the area.

An awesome place to stop in and check out. The owners are friendly, really nice people. Great food and great atmosphere

My wife and I travelled through this lovely country town just exploring the abandoned shops in the main street but found this awesome country pub with absolutely amazing food and fantastic country hospitality. Well done, Cracow Hotel 10/10.

Holiday from NZ... a step back in time. Waited outside for the young guy to come down the road and open up...cooked us up dinner despite a wedding the day before cleaning them out...Great hospitality and added to a great holiday. We stayed in historic hotels starting at Wondai and finishing at Mossman.

This old pub is a must see, it’s close to 100yrs old, owned by a family who make you the best lunch and dinner, such a lovely family who make you feel welcome, highly recommend a visit here. We spent 3 nights here in the caravan park.

Great atmosphere, delicious pizza and awsome cold drinks

Gorgeous views. Great spot that is set up not only for day trippers, but Campers too. Facilities available.

Great views and camping on the gorge. Camp area is very tight for larger caravans.

Lovely spot with a great view for a picnic lunch whilst on a road trip with our camper trailer. Good turning circle. Some steep cliffs, watch your step.

Sharp turn off to get to lookout. There is a path along spur for further views. Toilets available. Road a bit potholed.

Lovely views, however, really just a look out. This was great but write ups gave the impression that you could actually access the gorge. A wonderful view, but that's all. Disappointing. Very rough road in and badly signposted.

We visited from the Theodore side and went to the paved road, awesome feat of engineering! Definitely worth the time and the dirt sections of road were fine, although would need a 4x4 in the wet weather. Be respectful as you will be driving through properties witb unfenced roads and national forest. Make sure to visit the ladies at the Mad Cow coffee van on your way out of Theodore!

We only went to the view but that was worth a quick visit

Beautiful little town! Could not fault it. The community is just wonderful, everyone is so friendly and welcoming. The Cafe does an amazing brioche bun burger that is very well priced. The information centre was fabulous, the lady working their was so welcoming and wonderful. I purchased the cutest hand made cow from a local lady from the information centre. Had a great night stay at the Injune Motor Inn, the reception lady there was very kind, the room was amazing, comfortable and homely.

What a great information centre. Includes a Driver Reviver as well. Michelle was excellent.

After spending a month travelling the Outback - this tourist info office was THE best. Super friendly, knowledgeable and nothing was a problem. Agree-That more First Nations recognition would be good.

Great place for a coffee (driver reviver), tourist info, toilets and the playground for kids. The staff are very friendly and always help out!

Very friendly and helpful folks! Make sure to stop off here before heading to Carnarvon Gorge—I got so much more out of my trip than I would have otherwise.

What a great info center....everybody was so friendly and helpful.

For a town that is now capatalising from the Carnarvon Gorge there is very little recognition and acknowledgement of Indigenous Culture. The council doesnt even fly the Indigenous flag. Please consider embracing the Indigy Culture as Injune could really benefit from an all inclusive approach like N.Z. has achieved with the Maoris.

A nice little place to stop and have a break while travelling. The toilets were clean, staff friendly and helpful. We just grabbed a few drinks and stretched our legs while passing through.

Not a good place to stop and take a break if you have dogs that don't like being confronted or approached by offleash dogs. Tried to stop, but those working there have a dog roaming around off leash with no recall. So my dogs couldn't get out to stretch their legs while the kids have a look around. Considering a lot of people travel with their animals, it should be restrained or not bought in at all.

Lovely shop staffed by friendly helpful locals. Fabulous range of homemade craft items and baked goods. Cafe for hot and cold drinks and tourist information available. We chose a fruit tea cake made by Dawn Bailey and it's absolutely delicious! Fantastic prices as well. Well done Wallumbilla!

Amazing cakes!!!! Bought so many! Carrot cake is so yummy and moist reminded me of my granny’s baking. Devonshire tea lovely. You will not regret stopping in and getting something yummy!

So amazing this little place... home cooked biscuits n cakes.. fresh cuppa n good friendly service n hearing the history.. I recommend this place.. it's bloody beautiful n the crafts in there are amazing.. loved loved loved this shop..

Amazing, loved it, very interesting and worth taking a break there during your trip. The shop has a lot of hand made novelties and very lovely ladies at the counter 😊

Awesome shop! All little Knick knacks to purchase there including drinks and treats. Along with the highway pit stop it’s a perfect place to relax for a bit.

Definitely a tour worth doing but ONLY on Tuesdays, and it’s free. Arrive 1/2 hour early so you can visit the exhibition center before the tour. The volunteer guides were very knowledgeable and more than happy to explain the process. Definitely a must when visiting Roma👍👍

Really enjoyed the free tour of the saleyards in Roma Queensland. It's very interesting learning how it all works. How the animals are weighed and sold in lots to the highest bidder. They spray different coloured dots on the back and hind of the cows to indicate what lot they belong in. Tuesday is auction day and the best day to do the tour. The auctions here on Tuesday fix the meat prices for the whole Eastern seaboard for the week. This is the biggest saleyard in Australia. The road train trucks transporting all the cattle are completely washed down in special wash bays they have installed to stop the spread of weeds and viruses.

A most important facility in this country The biggest sale yards in the Southern Hemisphere The inteprative centre is excellent Try to join the tour on the Tuesday sale day at 8.15 am for your best experience

Did the tour Tuesday morning. It was fascinating, the tour guide really knew his subject and made it very interesting. Highly recommended.

Great day very educational for everyone Lovely place.

We went for the tour but opted out after the first 40mins. Rather boring to be honest and people asking stupid questions. You have to stand in on spot for a very very long time and dont walk around much. We noticed so many people leaving the volunteer talkers and walking around themselves. Would not reccomend for alot of older people who cant stand for to long in one spot.

It's free...great experience, plenty of information given by the guide. Popular little tour. Interestingly busy place....8000 head went through the day we visited! Crazy!

A Fabulous wildflower viewing experience. Rose is a botanist who shared her knowledge of the stunning local native flora with the group. A tasty picnic provided. A lovely spring day spent in nature.

Fabulous day trip to Wallaroo Station. It was a privilege to be able to get there and experience some of what the station has to offer. Meryl was the most knowledgeable and thoughtful guide. Her local and ecological experience really made the day one one to remember

Meryl is a real Aussie champion- she has a wealth of knowledge and outback skills for all. She has got a few aces up her sleeve and you should all jump on the Wallaroo tour.

We had the privilege of having Meryl Eddie take us for a day tour of Roma. We visited the Roma Sale yards, the sculptures, the biggest bottle tree. Morning tea and picnic lunch were superb gourmet meals. We Visited the Big Rig, which is an awesome experience for the history of the oil and gas fields. Meryl was totally awesome. A fabulous tour I can recommend. We were day visitors having flown with Avaition Tours from Charleville . Please do a tour with Boobook Eco tours the next time you visit Roma. Denise Price Caloundra

What a fantastic, interesting and informative tour. Meryl is extremely knowledgeable not only on flora and fauna but Aboriginal history of the area and the colonial days. To view the sandstone formations and colours were something to definitively admire and be stunned by the enormity of them along with the Aboriginal stencil art on these cliffs. To also see Aboriginal markings on the river rocks was a total surprise and so special. We highly recommend this tour to learn the history of this area and to see such special pieces of Aborginal culture. This is a must do tour.

Absolutely amazing experience! The Carnarvon Ranges are breathtaking — stunning scenery, rich Aboriginal history and an incredible guide who is very knowledgeable made every moment special. Perfect mix of adventure, culture and history. A must-do for anyone visiting outback Queensland!

An excellent tour, try and go. Merrill is a local who has extensive knowledge and a balanced outlook of farming practises, flora, fauna, gas industry and the land itself. It was a privilege to go onto a private property to see amazing indigenous art , stunning views and sculptured sandstone monoliths. The tour gave me such an understanding of the area it will be a forever memory, rather than just travelling through another town.

A beautiful old church. The lead light windows are definitely something to see while you are in town. The church also has some information and items to see that chronicle the history and construction of the church.

Beautiful stained glass windows. A very well maintained church...better than some Cathedrals that we have been to!!

A very peaceful and relaxing atmosphere. The church has a lot of charm and history. Great place to visit and enjoy.

Lovely church. Worth a visit

Wow what a beautiful old church ledlight windows amazing well worth a visit

Must see architecture, and glorious stained glass windows.

Amazing Church. Wonderful guide who imparted a wealth of information about the history of all the stained glass and lead light windows as well as the general history of the church.

We went to the night show, us and another couple...it had rained right up to it starting .A big shout out to Mareeta who went out of her way to give the full experience,big umbrellas and a port! Take home shot glasses. We certainly came away with a better understanding of Roma's gas history.

Well laid out describing the oil and gas exploration in the area. The lookout is great including the lift ride. Did the night show as well and found it good value

The perfect place to stop and stretch your legs. Not to mention the fantastic food, the all day breakfast menu is amazing! 100% recommend!

Some good history and information mixed in with some mining industry propaganda. The staff were lovely. Worth the visit

Good for any adults & for children over 10 younger children would get bored with lots of reading & listening.

Very interesting tour and night show, fairly cheap for the experience too.

The night show is worth a look and Quite interesting. The rig viewing deck is is a great climb with a view but the interactive daytime display is just reading lots of billboards saying "we dug, we tried, it failed... Again and again!" There's not an awful lot to look at. They really missed the opportunity to put a giant slippery slide at the top of the scenic stair climb.

Absolutly amazing museum! Every 5 years they run a cob and co run from Surat to Yuleba with the carriage. See pics below for the opening hours and loads of pics taken from the boards for those that missed something or want a nosey. Souvenirs available Free entry Indoor freshwater aquarium in here also Information desk Wheelchair friendly Great staff

A great little museum and aquarium. So many interesting artefacts donated by locals which tells the stories of the past. A great collection of memories for us to enjoy and experience what life was like in Surat and surrounds.

What an absolute gem this is. A donation museum which showcases the history of the area. From the cobb & co run, to drovers, the wool industry, hospital/health, shops, local photos and lets not forget the fish tank representing the fish species in the river. Spent a couple of hours wandering and reading the info. Well done to the Surat community & regional council.

The Cobb & co display & museum is very good. We arrived in town on the first day of the Cobb & co 100yr anniversary. The lady in the information section was NOT at all helpful. She had no idea what was on & told us if we hadn’t already booked anything that we wouldn’t be able to do anything or stay anywhere. We already had accommodation & I googled what events were on. Not the right person to have working there at such a busy tourist time for the town.

An excellent historical and cultural experience - with creative displays, rich variety of artefacts, written stories and digital wall display. A credit to the Surat community for integrating a museum, exhibition space, library, aquarium and state-of-the-art digital mural and interactive fish display. Highly recommended.

Time never stops, but history remains in the past forever. This museum is very small, but it records the local development history in detail.

Great little museum, very good displays on the cattle & sheep history of the area, and of course the Cobb & Co story and history.

Very interesting little gem to visit. Father and daughter talented artist. They crafted all the emu eggs and turned them into beautiful and amazing arts 😍

A little disappointing. $5 entry pp. Small / old display - non indigenous. Would have been good if other local artists involved.

Fantastic little gem, must see going through St George

Stavros is a very talented man and we are blessed with him sharing his life and talents with us. Very humble man and always willing to answer questions. Terrific to go and see his works.

Interesting and quirky place to visit if you're in St George. The artist Stavros was friendly and talkative. He's a very unique talent. The exhibit is small but very impressive and worth a look for a small cover charge. He is happy for you take photos.

Magnificent is the word and what a talented person, I've never seen anything like it and won't again well worth $5 for a look and highly recommend it

Amazing place and well worth the visit Stavros is an incredible man and loves to share his stories Eggs are amazing works of art Highly recommended

A wonderful blend of boutique and information centre. I really enjoyed the experience and the lady on duty was friendly and helpful ! Can’t wait to taste the local honey I bought. Even the toilet artwork was amazing ! Ben 13-07-2025

What a stunning region to explore! We recently spent the winter school holidays exploring the amazing towns, artesian baths and amazing friendly outback pubs. We also completed the St George Region scavenger hunt which was so much fun! A great way to find some hidden gems you may have missed otherwise and the people are so friendly and helpful! ❤️

Travelling Aussies 🇦🇺 Stopped at this lovely tourist information centre to learn about the ST George area and fill out water tank Only one tap, eight caravans waiting and has the lowest water pressure I’ve ever seen Wouldn’t hurt to have a couple of taps on either side of the carpark Yet, the biggest benefit would be gained by signing an anticlockwise traffic movement through the carpark, as caravan and motorhome fill points are almost exclusively located on the drivers side of the vehicle 👍

St George has had enough to keep us moving along checking out the Balonne River & river walk, Cotton Trail, Riversands Wines, Beardmore Dam, visit the the local Vinnies and few other stores down main street. Has Super IGA and Foodwork so stocking up on food supplies has been good...plus reasonably priced.

Worth a drop in to learn more about the area especially the history and manufacturing of cotton.

My husband & I booked the cotton farm & winery tour at the visitors centre. We weren’t disappointed, everyone should make time to do it. It was fabulous

We booked the St George Cotton Farm and Vineyard Tour from here. Comfortable air conditioned 20-seater bus, 4.5 hour tour with great commentary by Harry. Tour starts by driving through Moorook Farm, a garlic/onion/vegetable farm with lots of great information about the history of the farm and the area. Then on to the Cotton Farm where the farm owner Scott, jumps on the bus and gives an interesting talk about all things Cotton. His impressive collection of old tractors and farm machinery was a bonus. Back on the bus and off to the Riversands Vineyards where the owner David jumped on board and gave a tour of the vineyards. Wine tasting was next followed by sandwiches, cake, tea and coffee in the pretty gardens. We purchased wine, local garlic, local honey, and local grape relish before back on the bus and delivered back to our accommodation. We learned a great deal about the St George area, and would highly recommend this tour.

Had a lovely time once again at Riversands. Our host was very helpful and had a great knowledge of the wines on offer. We had a nice lunch of Frittata and Greek salad. Highly recommend a visit. The muscat goes perfectly while sitting around the campfire.

Wow great wine, was surprised with there selection of white/red wines and port on offer. Did a wine tasting, settled on a very nice bottle of sparkling Chardonnay. Had the Ploughman's lunch, and toasted ham and cheese sandwich. Outdoor garden to sit in, and pet friendly. Staff were lovely. Chilli says thanks for a nice lunch.

Great wine tasting - Didn't need to book, just walked in. Staff helpful and polite Lovely grounds and dining outdoors area. Parking was easy. Caravan accessible.

Great winery.lovely wines.great host David went out of his to make us welcome.cotton farm and winery tour was fantastic, great day out 😁🥂

This makes for a nice tour of a winery delivering table and bottled grapes. Interesting to learn about the different ways of growing, picking and processing both types of grapes. They also have a nice shop with good merchandise, and an ability to have tastings and nibbles sitting outside in a lovely setting.

Even though I did'nt purchase wine, the lunch was fabulous and reasonably priced. They had groups of coach visitors talking about their wines and taste testing of course. Lovely spot.

Had a lovely morning tea in the garden. Scones and coffee were delicious. Staff were really lovely. Pet friendly

Great overnight stop. $10 for power or free for unpowered. Pay at the pub. Level suits and some grass. Nice hot shower.

So awesome seeing them lit at night. Free camp is great and plenty of toilets around town

The silos are back from the road on private land in a working facility so you can’t get close fir photography. But there is a viewing spot nearby.

Great stop to stretch your leg or camp over night! If you are hooking up to power ($10p/n), you pay at the pub around the corner! You also can grab a decent pub feed there

Beautifully painted silos. We changed our route to make sure we saw the silos

Great place for a quick break or there's a powered camping sites available as well.

There's a camp site there, information on the history of the Silos. Good read
