Living in the Darling Downs Health region
Crisp winter air, knee-deep autumn leaves, clear summer days and a riot of colour in spring. Nowhere else in Queensland will you experience all four seasons as distinctively as right here.
You can appreciate the spectacular natural wonders and the stories behind historic sandstone buildings.
Brisbane and the Gold Coast are just two hours away - close enough for a weekend away with friends or family.
To the west, you’ll find rolling plains which are home to little rural townships, and warm bed and breakfasts.
Cruise north to Crows Nest through hamlets along the eastern escarpment and check out nurseries, cafés, museums and galleries.
Go south into the country that was the setting for Steele Rudd’s stories, and enjoy the atmosphere in rustic historic pubs.
In the northwest, the Bunya Mountains rise dramatically against the sky and offer spectacular mountain scenery, walking trails and abundant wildlife.
