Country Cities

Rockhampton, the Beef Capital of Australia, lies on the banks of the broad Fitzroy River. A historic city, built on the wealth of gold rushes and cattle empires, its heritage precincts preserve Rocky's grandest architecture while its collection of grand old pubs keeps the character of the city alive.

Mount Morgan is an historical mining town nestled on the Dee River a short 38 kilometre drive from Rockhampton. The town is rich in nineteenth century Queensland colonial history and has artefacts and relics from the gold rush days that visitors can experience.
