Well laid out and friendly staff. Lots of little gifts and plenty of information on surrounding area. You can visit the dinosaur exhibition out the back for $20. We didn't bother. If it had have been $5 per person, we would have gone through and no doubt given the Information Centre 5 stars. Instead we found plenty of free dinosaur art, metal art, water tank art and windmills around town to check out and photograph, along with other interesting visitor activities. The little town of Hughenden has a lot going for it.

Excellent and enthusiastic staff at the visitors centre! Very impressive,the Flinders centre was full of information and amazing exhibits,lol not just Dinasour stuff !! Kudos to those involved.

In Flinders Discovery it has a fantastic museum all so a Audio guide through the centre a life sise replica of Muttaburrasarus local history the centre can easily be navigated with mobility scooter, wheelchair ♿️ access toilet and dogs are allowed 😀 it is a magic place to visit fantastic happy staff 😀 makes for awesome experience 😀

This was the first main stop on our family (2 ad + 2 tweens) holiday to complete The Dinosaur Trail. The dinosaurs weren't the main component of the discovery centre though, which was surprising, but we loved it anyway. The level of detail and information about the history of sheep and cattle in the area was well done, informative and very interesting, and the staff were nice and helpful. When discussing our favourite part of the centre, we all said "The Porcupine Gorge Theatre". We are so glad we visited the gorge before visiting the discovery centre. The porcupine gorge theatre was a beautifully presented story of the formation of the gorge! My only disappointment was the lack of much (if any) indigenous history in the area. It is present around the town, especially in the beautiful Eco Walk, but quite distinctly lacking at the discovery centre.

A very helpful information centre and local history museum with some excellent exhibits about the area

Great little museum was last here in April 2023 and came back and there upgraded. Still amazing, well worth a visit, amazing place don't forget the kids Aussie Adventure passport to be stamped.

Fabulous displays of the history of this region. We would have liked to see more detail about the first nation's history. Lots of interesting information about early explorers and farming presented accessibly. The dinosaur fossils (except the Mutaburrasaurus) were nowhere near as engaging or complete as elsewhere. Nevertheless a worthwhile visit.

I visited the breathtaking Porcupine Gorge Lookout recently and was blown away with the epic views. The 200m return walk along a paved path from the carpark is easy to navigate, making this an ideal stop for families, seniors and even those with reduced mobility. The lookout is 11km from the Pyramid Camping ground where you can walk down into the gorge itself. Porcupine Gorge Lookout is a must-see outback gem - whether you're on a long drive through the outback or just here for a quick visit, this lookout is among the best in Queensland.

Great camp ground. 1.2km down into the gorge. Water was refreshing but be prepared to climb back up to camp.

Absolutely stunning location. The views from the lookouts is amazing and if you are keen to tackle the Pyramid lookout track it's gorgeous at the base too.

Lovely view. Camp ground nearby was decent and had a nice little hike into the gorge. Well worth a look if you're in the area.

A short 3 minute walk from the parking area on a graded concrete path takes you the lookout that provides a fantastic view both up and down the gorge.

Wow. What a treat! Definitely worth the hike. The water was stunning, but freezing. The signs all say "1.5km trip" but it is a HARD 1.5km. We were buggered by the time we were done. 100s of stairs and unevern terrain. Worth it.

Great spot to stop into just before the main campsite up the road. Only a short distance from the parking area for some of the best views you will see in the area.
