Experiences

Whether it's adventure, natural encounters or country hospitality that you're after, Toowoomba and the Golden West offers a whole host of experiences to keep you busy.

For the adventurous travellers out there, there are 4WD tours, skydiving and more on offer in Toowoomba and the Darling Downs, plus a vast array of markets and country drives for those who want to unwind and further explore the region. The area is steeped in heritage and natural beauty, just an hour and a half west of Brisbane and two hours from the Gold Coast.

Or, if you’re an explorer with a love of nature, fishing, fine wine and history, grab your rod and your billy and discover the Western Downs, one of Queensland’s best driving holidays, just off the beaten track. It’s the gateway to the Outback – so expect to get a taste of country hospitality, classic pubs, driving the open roads, and red dust and roos without the huge distances.

And of course, the South Burnett offers experiences galore too! From world-class freshwater fishing to forest walks; breathtaking rainforests of the Bunya Mountains National Park to gold fossicking, you'll not be short of fantastic experiences.
