If it’s classic Aussie pubs, stunning National Parks or colourful country experiences you're chasing, then a trip to Queensland’s Western Downs is a must on your holiday itinerary.
Stretching from the border town of Goondiwindi in the south to Carnarvon Gorge in the north, from Dalby in the east to St George and Mitchell in the west, the Western downs has room enough for an ideal country getaway. Discover wide open spaces and the rich pioneering history of real Queensland country. Enjoy great inland fishing, experience life on a host farm, go wine tasting western style and discover the peaceful lifestyle of rural communities.
The region begins less than a three hour drive west of Brisbane, and can be explored while touring some of Queensland’s major arterial highways.
